PLEASE HELPThe hallmarks read 1861, Sheffield, but I can't figure the Maker. The piece was purchased a few days ago at a silent auction at church. Now I am by far a Connoisseur of Artifacts from the Civil war, but this piece has all the bells and whistles..Richmond rifle Muskets, the Hallmarks indicate Sheffield,the make in 1961, not sure about the maker, can't seem to find his mark. I figure it was either a commissioned piece for the coming victory of the war..the chalice measures 8 inches tall, adorning the piece are laurels, roses, 3 muskets, the horn, pouch and drum..all elements of the American civil war, now I presume that possibly 3 sons went to war and none came back which would explain the empty spaces on all 3 cartouches? Well this is my theory, maybe I am way off, but any details regarding the piece would be appreciated. Submit your estimate of worth |

Wow, that's a stunning chalice. Is it silver?
If your chalice is silver and from the civil war era, it might be worth in the $2000-3000 dollar range and would be very rare. I've never seen a piece like yours, so I can't be sure of its origins, but it appears genuine to me. Thanks for sharing, very cool! |
