It was not mandatory to the silver that was in private possession, to approve it again ? I see these cases, mainly in Wallonia. What is the reason behind this? Whether this was done in protest to the transition from the guild marks, France or Belgium Kingdom. This I do not see this very often in Fla...

Best Oel, Thank you very much for this information, it makes this scene complete. It gnawed at me, I could not find it, i must expand my books again. It'll probably be worth to check out with Zilvermuseum Sterckshof for more books ( There is a man named Henk with the long beard and originally (paren...

Afterwards without reasons ( see photo ) However, it is not Peter Lambert Nijst , but his father : Nijst , Peter Baptized in Maastricht ( St.Nic ) Oct 25 , 1727. Son of Peter and Maria Margaretha Nypels . Deceased there April 9, 18...

Hi Oel Thanks for your quick and detailed results. As you can guess, I had my suspicion that it was good, but also had some doubts. Too fast on the site with trepidation, because I could not wait until I could find. my confirmation in the books. It was a weird day yesterday, and i could feel that th...

Purchased today. Year letter C (?) with 5 pointed star and maker's mark. Suspect that's the guild period. At this moment I am not in a position to watch in my books Maybe someone will recognize this.

He was baptized in Maastricht July 10, 1747 and deceased in August 17, 1813 The craft artistry and craftsmanship of the Maastricht driven silversmith guild centuries have standing out far into Europe a gr...

In the early morning to day,I found this spoon in Liege. The seller offered it as an old spanish spoon. (sure) Immediately bought it,, with my poker face. No time to find out everything, but already knows where it belongs. Kind Regards Dendriet http://imageshack.us/a/img41/7096/e6ys.jpg http://image...
