      What do the markings on the back say?

      Style is typical of American coin silver spoons of the 19th century.

      Coin silver is less than sterling but only minimally-- .900 vs. .925 and was often made from melted coins (hence the name).

      The markings will help to ID the maker and can have a impact on values-- Southern makers are desirable.

      I can't understand all of the markings on the back. What I could make out said Norton & Co.

      Need help making out the markings on the back. There's a star and two other pictures that I can't make out.
