  2. Pewter
    I have a collection of pewter, 10 plates, 2 candlesticks, a quart measure, 2 pint measures, 3 gill measures, 1/2 a gill and quarter of a gill also 4 egg cups
    Illustration of four pewter jugs
    The plates are about the size of a dessert plate & are in excellent presentation. They have a curious stamp on the back like silver in square, one is a unicorn, a harp, with a figure of a lady's head & bust on one side & in the 3rd part is another i distinct token. Over this is a drawing like as if 2 crossed swords surmounted by a coronet & over this is large letters
