That is the official maker's mark for the Sheridan Silver Company The Manufacturer: The company was originally founded in 1944 as the C & C Silver Company and officially incorporated as the Sheridan Silver Co. Inc. in 1946 The Material: The text "SILVER ON COPPER" confirms that this is a silver-plated item rather than solid sterling silver. It features a base structure made of solid copper that has a thin layer of fine silver electroplated over it. When pieces like this are heavily polished over many decades, the silver layer can thin out, sometimes revealing a warm, pinkish copper glow underneath (often referred to by collectors as "bleeding")
