An antique silver collection discovered in a family’s loft sells for £60,000, according to multiple reports. The cache includes more than 100 silver items spanning roughly the early 1700s to the early 1900s. The pieces are described as a mix of British and continental silver. Prior to the sale, expectations were substantially lower: one report says the collection was estimated to fetch up to £23,000. The collection’s long date range reflects different periods of production, and it includes a variety of silverware items rather than a single type. The outcome indicates the items attracted higher bidding than anticipated at auction. The reports do not provide further detail on the discoverers’ name or location beyond describing it as a family’s attic or loft, nor do they specify the auction house or buyer. Overall, the main agreed points are the number of items, their broad historical range, the loft setting in which they were found, and the final sale price of £60,000.
