Help identifying these two Mexican Taxco Makers Marks

Post by simsyboy »

Hi all,

I have three items, all have the "3" eagle mark, which I'm told is from TAXCO and one item actually says taxco, but I can't find any information on the makers mark.

The first is a poison ring with what looks like jade in it. On this mark I can see TEXCO MEXICO in an arch around the 925 silver mark and something underneath the 925 which I can't see.The the eagle "3" "bell" is off to the left of this mark.

The closest mark I see in the Mex. menu is the J. Veles. Did you rule this out, so far? Of course they don't show an eagle 3 alongside, but there seems to be a variational similarity. That said, this would be inconclusive. I defer to our experts.
