It's so easy to forget (or even never learn in the first place) that the famous men from the Revolution had lives and skills that were wholly separate from war and governance.

[@jamiehughes5573]

What was also very interesting is Paul revere's father was a Huguenot, the Protestants who were hunted down by the french. He emigrated to America. Huguenots are widely known as some of the best silversmiths, so the french spite themselves by giving America and Britain some of the best silversmiths when they fled from france

[@AndySaenz]

Wow, what a gorgeous piece of sterling silver!

[@iluvgalina]

and so was the sugar bowl

[@Vermontguy87]

It’s not sterling silver it’s made out of coin silver!!!

[@arikkraft5755]

Well I believe you both are correct. Originally all of it was coin silver. The probability of the replaced top being made of sterling is very high.

[@englishrose4388]

It was a treat seeing this piece.

[@syx3s]

whomever created that top may not have had the same historical significance, but what a talent regardless. that thing is a real treasure.

[@robertgoldstein52]

His father, also Paul Revere,was also a silversmith

[@WonkaVator72]

Not to split hairs, but the poem's title is "Paul Revere’s Ride." The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere is a 1931 painting by the American artist Grant Wood :-).

[@josephineroe8424]

Is it possible that the top is original but at some point in it's history, all the elaborate engraving was added?

[@arikkraft5755]

Not possible. It doesn't match. The appraisers assessment was accurate. Going into further detail to explain would be tremendously time consuming.

Why? It's not like Paul Revere rode a sugar bowl to warn that the British were coming.

You sound like Indiana Jones.

Why do you think so? Its theirs to enjoy. Every work of art does not automatically become sonething that must be shared with everyone. It is rather selfish of you to presume that they should put it where you could see it.

I read somewhere Paul Revere marked some of his work with a rabbit I saw a silver bowl decorated with the old 13star flag among other things. My buddy loved metal detecting he was the one who found it. He was also a hoarder and a schitsophrenic sorry about the spelling. When I found out about the marking I tried telling him but he passed away I would love to know if that was "thee silver bowl.

[@dodgeman4360]

"Do you have any idea of what's it worth?" "Do I look like an effing appraiser?"

[@tigergutt93]

Someone, somewhere probably has a top missing the bottom. If to ever sell, 2 people with each piece would double the money or more together. Just a thought

[@b.o.4469]

Unlikely

[@Forensource]

How does she miss the Revere part?

[@seamus1956]

Forensource I don’t think she did. Based on her comments I think she just hadn’t made the connection to “Paul” Revere, especially since it doesn’t appear she thought it was old enough to be from the colonial period - that info came from the expert during the appraisal.

[@theMull90]

From what she said, she was more concerned that it was a genuine Paul Revere and not some other Revere or some sort of copy.

[@Bunny-ch2ul]

Revere marks are frequently forged. I would be skeptical of anything with one that didn't come from an extremely reputable dealer. I suspect she knows that.

[@petejones879]

I don't know a great deal about American history.. Was Paul revere the guy on the oss that rode into town shouting the English are coming?... If I'm right it's only cos I saw that on Bewitched

I don’t mean to be rude but it seems like everyone asking for an appraisal has never heard of Google.

[@keithlordofalbascotland3371]

That's because there usually old farts no computer

[@jamesjoseph1249]

First off it's tough to tell if it's real or not...that's why you take it to an expert. Then it's tough to tell if everything is intact or something was replaced or is missing.

[@roncaron8939]

google is awesome if you know what your looking for. i'll bet if you googled "silver sugar bowl" you would get 10,000 images! markings can be forged and it takes an expert to know the difference.

[@roncaron8939]

i think that it was in the late 60 or early 70s, that silver prices went through the roof and a lot of historic family silver got melted down.

[@eolsunder]

some info that you might not know. Paul Revere was a silver smith, but he wasn't a great silversmith. Most of his stuff is valuable due to his name and history, not the quality of Paul Revere. Paul Revere SR, his dad, was the better silversmith and did better work and his work is just as valuable due to the quality, not Paul jr. being famous. Much of this silverwork you need of course to make sure what was done by Paul, and what was done by Paul Sr, his dad. Both equally valuable, but each has their own brandwork so you can tell who did what.

[@skippymagrue]

[@fabulouslifeinchrist1349]

Are reproductions worth anything close to this?

[@roncaron8939]

it all depends! if it's a replica, of an original, made in later years by the original company and marked as such and it has the same workmanship, it will have much more value then a forgery or a later copy! Nothing has more value, then a the one that was created by the original craftier.

[@b.o.4469]

No, not even close

[@tripprawlings9284]

Do they still teach that Paul Revere poem in elementary school? Had it drummed in to my head 2nd or 3rd grade and still remember it. If not then it’s an abomination...current teachers unions are destroying the teaching of our American history in schools.

[@jamesjoseph1249]

No. They instead teach that all the founding fathers were a bunch of white supremacists who did nothing of value.

[@JohnnyAngel8]

Unions protect workers from exploitation. And your comment had nothing to do with curriculum but was just a chance to be nasty.

Sadly, public schools are going full blown 1619 project, claiming whites and especially our founders brought slaves to America and slaughtered all the Native Americans. It's sick how communists have infiltrated and infested public schools and government in order to rewrite history.

He told a little story that sounded well rehearsed Four days on the run and that he's dying of thirst The brew was in my hand and he was on my tip His voice was hoarse, his throat was dry, and he asked me for a sip He said, "Can I get some?" I said, you can't get none Had a chance to run He pulled out his shotgun Quick on the draw, I thought I'd be dead He put the gun to my head and this is what he said
