c1850s Fab set 11 American Coin Silver Albert Coles Jenny Lind Dinner Forks

Description

Presented is a great set of 11 American coin silver dinner forks. These forks
were made by Albert Coles, and date to around the 1850s. The spoons are made in
a pattern called Jenny Lind, which began production in 1850. This is a graceful,
elegant pattern, with all the charm and style of the opera singer they're named
after. The forks have a monogram reading To E from W on the handle. These are
full size dinner forks, very sturdy and well made, with a nice feeling of weight
in the hand.
This set is in great overall condition. The details of the pattern are nice
and crisp. The forks have some normal use-based wear, rounding on the outside
two tines and some knife marks to the backs of the tines, nothing
excessive.  There are no splits, no breaks, no dents, no monogram removals,
and no repairs.
Each fork is stamped with the retail mark for Squire & Lander.
Each fork is about 7 3/4 inches long.
The total weight for the set is 610 grams or 21.5 regular ounces.
