Up for bid is a Massachusetts fiddle pattern coin silver salt
spoon by Palmer & Batchelder of Boston.
The spoon is 3 7/8 inches long and weighs 5 grams. The spoon has rounded shoulders, a shell
bowl, no drop and an upturned double-swell fiddle handle. The spoon is monogrammed “JES” on the handle
front. The spoon is marked [P&B’S]
in a rectangle as shown.
Condition on the spoon is fairly good. There are a few small black spots and normal
surface wear. It has not been buffed. A nice coin salt spoon.
