Over the weekend, I picked up this spoon. It's 5 1/2" in length, has 925/1000, an indecernable hallmark, sterling and pat.1895 on the back. The bowl is paneled. Any ideas as to who made it and whether it's worth listing on ebay http://imagehost.vendio.com/preview/ma/max40/Mvc001s.jpg

I haven't even looked at the picture yet, but I'm going to guess (just for the fun of it) it's Towle Old Colonial.

As to whether it's worth listing, sure. I'd expect to get $10 or so in really good condition, which it looks like it is, with no tip wear or monogram on the handle.
Bidding can go higher on sterling flatware depending on how badly the piece is needed. These teaspoons aren't rare but the panelled bowl makes them interesting.
