Thanks very much for your help, and I will certainly keep my image up so others can learn from it :)

Oh, wow! Thank you so much!

I feel like an idiot; my eyesight isn't so good lately. How did you match up the maker's mark?

Yes, plastic bags release gases so it's pretty harmful.

Acid free paper and cotton wraps work best.

I am at a loss with this supposedly German sterling silver & crocodile skin wallet.

It is missing the ordinary sickle, crown, and 800 hallmarks.

Any clue as to the maker and the age? Help would be greatly appreciated!

I have this pair of antique German silver fox salt & pepper shakers that I'd like help on. I am certain the marks mean German silver, not plate or .925 sterling, however do these marks signify the year? Or a particular origin? This is my first time investigating German silver, if that helps any....

Thank you very much :) That helps a lot! I am sorry that that page did not turn up in my earlier search.

My mother purchased this white gold hallmarked ankleg in Italy nearly 30 years ago, and for the life of me I cannot figure out what the two remaining hallmarks mean, besides that ''750' defines the gold purity.
