Plz help identify this mark on a Jewish? Goblet. Russian? Israel?

Post by WolfFrog »

I bought this goblet the other day. It was sold to me as being.925 from a Jewish. The seller "acquired a Jewish estate". The seller (online) didn't even notice it was marked. I bought it not knowing if it was indeed silver or just plated and hoped for the best as I thought it was interesting. Now I see these marks which I cannot seem to identify. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
It is Moscow 1896.
Maker^s mark is on the left, but not clean and too dark to decipher, particularly the first letter is important.The second looks like Ч (Cyrillic).

Hmmmm! Isn't the town mark for Moscow a bit strange being from 1896? Anyway, the maker's mark is БЧ. Cannot identify him, sorry.

Hmm what are you thinking? What’s strange?

Oh yeh and do these marks indicate it’s silver? .960, .875,..?

Oh I guess the horse is facing the opposite direction it is in the other Moscow 1896 pieces I’m seeing. Is that it? What would that point to?

The town mark is strange, the maker is unknown, it is most likely a judaica object...what do you think it points too?

Not picking up what you are throwing down. Not sure what it point to.

If the town mark is strange, the maker completely unknown on a judaica object, its origin is more than dubious, In other words faked!
