A 64 piece coin silver flatware service by Clemens Oscamp, Cincinnati Ohio.
Oscamp began business there in 1854 and this set was likely produced before
1860, when the sterling standard became prevalent. Along with Herman Duhme,
Oscamp's business became one of the most important in the midwest. This
service, that bears two of Oscamp's maker's marks was both made and sold at
his shop at 62 Main St. in Cincinnati. The beautiful engraved work is of
Oscamp's own design and is similar to other engraved patterns popular in
that city.
The set consists of the following:

As with other services made in that period, knives were not included.
