I have come across a beautifully ornate old silver ( I think teapot)
I am new to antique silver so I need help.
The lid is missing and the hallmarks on the bottom bear no resemblance to the ones I've seen on the sites.
They consist of 5 characters in square "shields"
all letters in OLDE ENGLISH script..... as follows
E B W & S
Im sorry I have no picture. The letters look like those used for dating in the Dutch system in the 1800's...can anyone shed some light??
Sincere thanks.
Desperately seeking direction

TIG - If you right click on any web image and then select Properties it will give you the exact address of the image. That's the address you need to use. Try it above.
