Post by sebastian4743 »

I have an interesting vesta made of 935 silver and I cannot figure out the marks which ar on the rim of it. Any ideas?

Thank you for your help. The dating is rather difficult as the LK is in a oval but the silver purity is not in a cartouche. My guess would be that it was made after 1920.
