Hello,

Wondering what this hallmark is? It looks Arabic to me. I believe the ladle to be silver. Kind regards!

Hi Bahner,

Thanks so much! It was difficult to find more information from my searches. I also see my typo, I meant 700/1000 - thank you for confirming the quality mark and timeframe :) More to go off of now!

Kind regards

Greetings,

I am wondering if anyone knows if this mark "Jul Frey" with crossed keys and "70"? I have found other examples that relate it to Prussia and call it silver. Can someone confirm whether it is indeed 70/1000 silver or silver plate? Or know of other information about the maker. I'd like to ...

Aguest - thank you for your time studying the item and marks. Sorry it was blurry!

Dognose - I see that! I was looking at it upside down but I believe you are correct. Thanks for your input in solving the marks.

Hello,

Trying to make out the marks on this handled basket. Particularly the middle mark, perhaps a man's side profile? The marks are on the base. Thanks!

Fantastic!

Hi Peter,

Thank you for the information and resources. Very helpful!

I cannot find Dutch city date letters on any online resource, therefore, I have two questions.

1. Could someone help me date the spoon in the photo?

Thanks Aleks that is really interesting!! We have been looking into French marks since your post, and I also see that Montpellier used the wreath as a hallmark which may look slightly closer to the mark on the spoon ...

Thanks Theoderich for your interest. We wonder if it is a stemmed flower on the shield. We also wondered if the laurel wreath was ...

Hi there. We have two mystery marks on a large tablespoon. The first is a laurel wreath and the second is less clear (possibly a shield). Was found with fork with same monogram (RR) and pattern with “13” loth standard indicated. Any help would be appreciated as we have not been able to make progress ...

Hi legrandmogol. The seller didn’t know anything about these spoons and I wanted to learn more about them. I got the second spoon as a gift with the first one. It was a good research project.
Kind regards.

Hi Peter. Thank you for your insight. I appreciate learning more about these mysteries even if they aren’t as old as they pretend to be.
Kind regards.

I have a large bowled spoon with a cast handle, St. Matthew with tax collector money bag, I believe. Bowl is monogrammed "HCB." There is a hallmark on the back of the bowl near the stem and an inscription "1691." The hallmark is unclear with a corresponding bigorne mark on the obverse. If anyone can ...

Thank you again! I really appreciate being able to add this information to my silver hallmark identification skill set.

Wow, thanks everyone! I really appreciate your assistance in me learning more about this spoon :)

Is this a rare piece?

Did you use a book/text as a reference?

Thanks!
