I'm trying to find out about Hershey's (Silver) Bells - I am 83 years old, and am sure that when I was a child the Kisses were called Bells - when did they change, and why?

Wallace began producing Silver-plate sleigh bells in 1971. In 1990, Wallace began crafting gold-plated sleigh bells as well. Then, in 1995, they produced both a silver-plate and a sterling silver and a gold plated version for the 25th anniversary of the production of sleigh bells. Since 1995, they have produced all three bells as part of their annual collection.You can determine the silver-plate from the sterling bells in two ways:If it is silver-plate, the annual number of the bell will be higher. For instance a 1995 silver-plate bell is a 25th edition while the sterling version is the 1st edition.The sterling bells will be stamped "Sterling" on the bottom of the bell.
