    I would say it is a pewter. I have seen silver streaks around 3k and the pewters around 1100.00.

    I agree with others that it looks like a pewter.

    Re: Silverstreak

    This is what a Cinnamon version (Sterling Pastel) of the Silver streak looks like at the approximate age of yours.



    Here is what the Cinnamon Version of a Pewter looks like at the same age.



    The one in your picture looks like a Black Pastel Pewter to me.

    I wouldn't go as far as to say there patternless, I'd say highly reduced. --Josh

    It doesn't look like a silver streak or a sterling. It looks like a
    Cinnamon Pewter to me. Albey's Sterling pics are spot-on (and very nice, too). Albey's Cinnamon Pewter pic is an exceptional animal, most are darker than that in my experience.
    Here is a Black Pastel Pewter (Ian G line black pastel):

    And here is a picture of a mid-grade Silver Streak:

    And here is a picture of a nice Silver Streak:

    And finally, a picture of an adult Silver Streak:
    I have found that the pattern does get lighter on adults, but they are definitely NOT patternless.

    There you go....2nd picture down looks pretty much the one we have.

    We have contacted the named breeder for confirmation....will let you know the outcome.

    Thanks all.
