Description:
This silver fork is worn on the back and has a spots of discolouration on the front. On it are the words “Simeon L. & Geo. H Rogers Co. Al + ONE IDA Ltd.” About 1970, G. Walker & V. Reid using a metal detector, found it at Port Pemberton and dug it up. Previously we believed it may date from the Gold Rush to the Fraser and beyond, however after further research we discovered the Simeon L. and Geo. H Rogers Co. came into being circa 1900. Further research concluded the pattern of the fork is “Pendant 1941”. The material is either silver plate or sterling silver.
