Collection: United States of America (and the early American colonies)

American silver was normally made at slightly lower standard of silver, hence up until about 1850-1860 it is called 'coin silver' and is about 90%. After that sterling standard (92.5%) became popular and most pieces from then on were stamped 'Sterling'.
