The outside surface is bright and polished the back has some tarnishing that could be polished if the new owner desires.   Adolf Hitler Silver was the most desirable of all war trophies. Every U.S. soldier wanted to bring home something of Hitler’s. Hitler’s silver was the choice item. Unlike silver eating utensils that had many in a set the serving pieces where much fewer (and hard to carry). Many U.S. soldiers who where lucky enough to get a hold of Hitler’s silver opted for the less cumbersome eating utensils. Many times only officers or soldiers with access to motor vehicles carried big pieces home. This item was very difficult to photograph because of the bright shine of the silver (it looks much  better in person) 100% guaranteed to be authentic complete museum documentation (COA) provided. Ex Dr. Mark Griffith Collection who wrote the book on Hitler Silver. An amazing historical artifact from the 20th century’s most infamous person Adolf Hitler. Do Not Miss this rare offering!
