Day 89 - Jamestown, Spoon Handle

The handle is all that remains, but this 'Copeland Spoon' is one of the oldest pewter pieces that have been found that were actually made in America. The stamp indicates it was made in 1675 by Joseph Copeland in Chuckatuck, a settlement about 30 miles SE of Jamestown.
