Silver Tea Set @1863 stamp M B &S

Post by tamarlee1962 »

I have inherited my grandmother's silver tea set. On the bottom it has stamped a crown, a cross, and the letters M B &S in that order. I've searched the web and have found nothing. The pieces have an inscription to my family dated 1863.

Can anyone identify or point me in a good direction? I'd like to know the maker, the history.

Right! Thanks. It appears I'm not the only one a little baffled by the mark...
