Antique Questions Forum / English Biscuit Box

« on: September 30, 2008, 11:51:08 am »

As I was cleaning out my Grandmother's basement yesterday, I came across a tarnished silver biscuit box.  The original receipt from 1964 and the identification card? was still in it.  It is made by Mappin and Webb and card reads circa 1860.  It was purchased for $85.00 in 1964, so that leads me to believe its a fairly expensive piece of silver.  Can anyone give me a direction to head in towards finding exactly what this piece is worth?  I can send pics if anyone is interested.
