I will begin by saying I am new to this form and ever knew to silverware. I recently came upon a lot of old flatware since the passing of a relative. This particular fork and knife is elaborately designed and singed on both handles with what I believe says Sr John Phillips. I am assuming Sr = Sir? Anyhow, I would love to identify the marks, I have searched this sight and same seem to find anything similar. Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the forum. Those are Albert Coles marks. Take a look here for a little more information: http://www.925-1000.com/americansilver_C2.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Thanks so much silverly for the warm welcome, prompt reply and info! Much appreciated.
