Author	Topic: Russian Silver spoon - double headed eagle
ciscoman Posts: 21 Registered: May 2013	posted 06-04-2013 11:08 AM I really like this spoon. Just because of the double headed eagle. The main color on it is one that I haven't seen before so makes me wonder. It's very hard to make out the assayers mark but from what I see and the picture of the female head, it is very similar to Ivan Lebedkin, Moscow. I added a picture of inside the spoon which has someones name so must have been a gift. (forgive my punctuation. I need to go back to school) IP: Logged
