Hello,
My siblings and I inherited a beautiful silver teaset. On the bottom of each piece is stamped PL Krider Sterling Philada. Then engraved it says "This silver was mined fom Reed and Benson Mine" The Reed and Benson seems stamped rather than engraved. It's quite lovely, only a few dents here and there. One side is an emblem with the dates 1851 on one side and 1876 on the other. On the other side of each piece it is monogramed with the date 1900 engraved. We'd like to liquidate but where do I start? Any one out there guess it's value? Thanks. Mary
