This silverplate fork is marked EPNS on the back. I believe this comes from National Silverplate. The fork is 8 inches long. The piece is a little dull but has no heel wear or dings. I found two circle areas on the bowl side that look like just stains but are the beginning of pits--these are faint but present on examination. I am not sure when this pattern was issued. One catalog lists it as pattern NTS30. I have provided a close up picture of the end for identification.
