Up for bid is a nice coin silver dessert spoon, marked DOWNING. The spoon is 7 1/8 inches long and weighs 30 grams. The spoon has a swaged open shell drop, flared rounded shoulders and a downturned fiddle handle. The spoon is monogrammed “MC” on the handle front. It is marked [DOWNING] in a rectangle.
Condition on the spoon is fairly good. There are a few small bowl dents and normal wear of use. A decent coin silver spoon.
