    Can anyone here read Asian ? ... don't ask me which country

    My niece has a set of spoons that are labeled gold filled --- guessing that's nothing great

    Anyway, she wants to try selling them but we have no idea what else to write about them in the listing.

    Can anyone here read anything on this label from the box ?

    Thanks

          That helps a lot -- just knowing it's Korean.

          Thanks

            I can read Asians... usually when I lump them altogether as "Asian" they get real mad and kick my butt with some kind of Kung F U/Karate/Ninja type stuff ...

              Yeah, I can only read my name in Korean, ask for water and say thanks in Mandarin, and ask where the Sake is in Japanese.

              Oh and my mother was a jeweler. Gold filled is typically the same as electro-plate. Means a few molecules thickness of gold on the outside attached to a base metal, filled with something else. Usually not enough precious metal to bother scrapping, and when there is getting it separated out is a real bear.

                "Thank you" is the only Korean I remember from my trip there ... hmmm, wow, 28 years ago.

                  I would have guessed Korean from the oval characters.

                  You are transparent; I see many things... I see plans within plans.
