I always doubted the scrapchads but today I finally lucked out. I got picrel for $0.50 at a yard sale.
I thought it was a goblet at first but matches online identify it as a sherbet cup.

Judging by the stamp the base is filled with cement. The cup itself must be solid silver because I was able to easily pop a dent in one of the sides.
The stem near the cement filling is crimped a bit.

I know that it's not truly solid silver because of its cement base but it's the first sterling find of mine, I'm estimating 20-25g of sterling.

It has a rather nice patina but I intend to use it, so here are some pics before I baking soda/aluminum it and finish it with a hand polish and buffing.
