Lil' Help w/ a Few Taxco Items?

Post by Tipton444 »

Hey guys. I recently got a few sterling items from Taxco, and I'm just trying to find out more information on them. Each has a different taxco hallmark, but I'm mostly concerned with the first one, the necklace. It is marked TC-00, does that mean he was the first to register? I'm sure that doesn't mean to much, but can anyone help me figure out who the maker was? I read it's hard to figure out many Taxco stamps, but seeing if anyone possibly knew. Also, I put two more items I couldn't figure out as well. Thank you very much for any help, it's much appreciated. -Eric

Tipton,

Used my iPad to expand the hallmark, first number appeared to be an 8. Found no artist for TC-80. Some possibilities from The Little Book of Mexican Silver Trade and Hallmarks... were:

TC-03 JGM
TC-90 FCE
TG-38 CFA
TG-89 SGJ

Good luck on your search.
Warren
