I'm not a huge fan of the aesthetic, but at barely over 1/2 of melt value you can't go wrong. Do you think you can advertise it properly and sell it for a premium?

I really love these huge chonky ladles and spoons fren, they were likely rather uncommon to begin with, but after 200 years of being melted down there can't be many pre-revolutionary serving pieces still in existence. Current resale/retail values for such things fall in a very wide range, I see websites which cater to richfag egos offering and actually selling nicely polished but unremarkable 18th century silver items for 3-10x melt value, items which you can get at scrap price all the time. Nice pictures and a paragraph which convinces the wealthy customer that such venerable antiques are a credible flex of their refined taste and superior intellect really opens up their wallets.

I've seen similar french silver tokens for sale and always thought their very low prices represented an awesome niche for a collector on a budget to accumulate a beautiful collection of visually appealing and historically poignant old silver. Do you know how these tokens were used? Did they ever circulate or were they strictly commemorative medals or prizes given to people for various reasons?

kek, watching that idiot try to compare this antique cigar ashtray made from genuine chopmarked spanish dollars (and a based Ecu) with his obvious modern chink fakes absolutely reeks of ignorant poorfag seethe.
