shabby old hotel silver dinner forks, antique silver plate flatware mismatched pieces

Huge lot old silver plated flatware, very heavy hotel type silverware, 70+ dinner forks. This is all just as found, we haven't cleaned or polished it.

It's used and worn - some of this has beautiful patina from years of cleaning and polishing, but many pieces have some wear to the silver or rust spotting, and a few pieces have worn and / or bent tines (I wonder what they did to these poor things!).

These are mostly pretty close but not identical in style, nearly all are the 'plain' forks. The whole lot is shown together in the first photo.
