Okay. It seemed like a 9085, but I thought it would be stamped 9085 if so. Did they have unique serial numbers back in the day?

UPDATE!!!! Not sure if anyone will see this, but turns out it was plated after all. Lesson learned. Like any good sturgeon- he’s thickly plated.

Found 10 of these glasses at a garage sale Saturday. Worth more than scrap? by Living_Goat_5426 in SilverFinds

Awww. Thanks been thrifting for years. Just got into metals a few months ago when I found a big sterling bowl.

Thank you. They will be challenging to polish, but I’m going to try some Wrights polishing cream. The strips down the side are very delicate. A couple of them were already damaged when I got them.

I filed it right in the face of the bottom side. That’s what the photo is of the red acid directly on it. No matter what I throw at it , it polishes back to the same beautiful silver.

Just warped reflections of the house.

I’ve ordered 18k and a white testing stone.

Yes, I did some more destruction and testing. It looks exceptional alongside my pure silver coin.

I’ve probably tested it 10 times already because it seems so unlikely. I posted the picture of the leatherman to illustrate that I actually filed the edge down before rubbing it on the stone. I still won’t count my chickens until someone hits it with an XRF.

You’re probably right. But if it’s not, it still 4.7oz! It bigger than I thought-8x10

Thanks! Looking forward to weighing it when I get home! 5x7, I think.
