No worried that some of my 800 Italian silver pieces may be plated.

Good day Here is a box for Sipelia Rustless Nickel Silver Dessert spoons. Groete Jannie https://i.postimg.cc/NMhPSNF0/20210313-084531.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/r0JvsTPT/20210313-084459.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/gXdCGj44/20210313-084825.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/dZVgTfby/20210313-084830.jpg

Good evening I have this fork ( and a spoon somewhere) with the date letter for 1861 used on Christofle silver plated cutlery. It is only mark 61 and 4. It is in their "Filet" (or "Chinon") pattern. Why would and other marks be missing? Groete Jannie https://i.postimg.cc/PPBRXPjz...

would this be maybe Hungarian or Romanian. Has Pfunol monogram. 13. loth and makers mark AW or could AW be a Prussian tax mark? https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg Good evening I have a similar box if I read your description. Can't see any of your pictures ...

Good day A cigarette tin in my collection from 1912/13 by Henry Matthews of Birmingham. It was given to Captain F.D. Berry from the Medical Staff at N.L Camp Jacob's. Not much more info available. https://i.postimg.cc/sBrxJX2G/20210227-140111.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/hJ1jZBJy/20210227-140153.jpg

Here are the lost pictures again. Still no new info about the tin.

Good day Got this interesting box for while now and trying to find out some more about it. It is a small plated pewter box with 2 lids. What would its use be and when would it been made. I find no markings but it does have Dutch writing on it. STREICH ZU NU REENNT ET I think. Any help will be helpfu...

The Normann family extended their coat of arms next to the count's arms with the coat of arms of the extinct Ehrenfelser family, in blue three oblique left bars next to each other, the two outer ones red, the middle gold. The description fits perfectly the hatching of right arms on the box. (I thou...

So I did some more digging. This box could have belong to Philipp Christian von Normann-Ehrenfels. He was made a count in 1806.
He died in 1817...can this box be that old?

For the maker AW let's wait for Theoderich.

Thank you, yes it should be count. I wonder if there would be any records of German/Austrain counts somewhere?

Jannie

Good evening I have posted this before but the pictures got lost. I have this Austrain/German snuff box marked AW and 13. It bares a dukes crown with an unknown coat of arms. I am trying to figure out the age of the item aswell as the maker. Any help will be welcome Jannie https://i.postimg.cc/1VynG...

Good evening

Thanks
Jannie

Good evening I have bought a pewter candlestick today. I am trying to find out who made it and can't seem to find a good pewter identification site. The mark on the bottom is a double headed eagle with crown between heads. The other mark is an angel holding a sword and a scale. Any help will be welc...

Thanks. Any idea what Hallmarks it could be. Don't think it is German.
