An American coin silver spoon is a piece of antique flatware made in the United States before the 1870s. Purity: Pure silver is too soft to be used for eating, so it is mixed with copper, stamped wimply with just the maker's last name or initials. These spoons were hammered by hand rather than mass-produced by machines. you can often see slight variations in the thickness of the handle and bowl.

Jacob Fogel was a silversmith working in Georgia between 1825 and 1841. The item features various monograms and bears his maker’s trademark, which includes an eagle and star alongside his name. This trademark indicates the use of 90% coin silver in the piece. The item dates to the Pre-Civil War era, most likely from the 1820s to the 1830s.
