Hello and a great Sunday to all! Last week I bought some silver lots from auctions. In a lot with British and Scandinavian silver mostly from 18-19th century I got a bracelet that looks interesting to me and I need your opinion on it. There was no description/information about it. There are no silve...

Thank you so much for your fast and precise reply!

Hello everyone. Today I found an interesting silver piece, but can't really find a maker based on the hallmark. Maker mark looks like a russian letter B and P. Any help is much appreciated. Thank you! https://i.postimg.cc/FfkM7BBg/IMG-20201117-001112.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/3WhwQXkb/IMG-20201117-00...

I understand.

I forgot to mention the dimensions.

Base is 13cm diameter, upper part is 20cm in diameter.

You are right. Seems more like 1695. Hallmark is definitely Samuel Hood.


AG2012 why do you say it is too good to be true?

Hello. Can someone help me identifying these hallmarks? I think it is William&Mary period silver. Seems like a fruit basket , date looks like 1691, but I couldnt find the makers mark.

If you are a collector of tongs you will know that maker's mark and sterling lion passant are normally the only marks present on 18th century examples. Your first maker is GS and almost certainly London. The lion passant is of the type used from 1739 to 1755 but I am not certain about the identity ...

Hello everyone. I have 2 Silver sugar scissors that I can't really identify the maker mark, city mark and date. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance ! No. 1 2 hallmarks present : - silver standard mark - 2 letters (G I ?) https://i.ibb.co/7QTD0s2/IMG-20200126-133351.jpg https://i.ib...

I haven’t bought it. I just only asked what it is.

What kind of hallmark do you think it is? French maybe?

It was advertised as “russian” and also it comes from an ex Soviet state. 85 can be a hallmark for silver in Russia.

Forgot to mention. This is a cane with a sword inside. Here are some more photos

Hi. Can someone help me identifying this hallmark? Looks Russian but I’m not so sure.

Thanks.

Hello. Can anyone confirm what this is? Tea strainer?

Also, is marked 84 , tomwn of Kostroma, can anyone identify makers mark(Looks like“ BBIL”)? Thanks.

Gold tested positive with 14k gold acid.
It is a watercolor as I can see.

Sorry, duble posted the same image

There is a 56 mark here: https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg Imperial eagle- I'm also concerned about that. Also I attach a better photo of the eagle. https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg

I saw an item at an estate sale, that looks a bit strange. The kokoshnik looks like Yakov Nikolayevich Lyapunov used in St. Petersburg 1898-1903 Makers mark is сф Could that be Karl K. Fischer or Samuel Filiander, both active in St.P ? Also, there is a gold mark that also doesn't seem right somehow....

I always check those sections. My other questions were more to know about specifics things to look when seeing russian silver marks and not beeing fooled by very good visual fakes.
Here was a city mark that I never seen, even after looking on the russian section in all pages.
