Hello everybody.

Found my first sterling fork today at the park. I've found regular forks and spoons before, but
this one was very shiny ( not dirty brown like usual,) so I immediately checked it for a
mark and was very pleased to see it stamped STERLING. Only 4 wheats and some clad
and memorials otherwise.

Good luck,

I didn't see your fork pictured but looked through them rather quickly.

  Never thought I'd say a fork was beautiful, but that one sure is.  Cool find, love the silver.

Sweet Silver Fork!

Ahh, why does that remind me of Star Trek?  Looks like a Vulcan sign?

Congrats on some sweet silver!

Good Luck,
Mark
