Hi

I think that marks can be cancelled and another one inscribed in legal registers when the previous one was... broken !
It happens !

Hi, According to marks, it is a French item. An old woman looking to right with an "1" : 950 silver from "départements" (i-e France except Paris), 1819-38 An old man looking to left with two number : garantee for big silver items from "départements" (i-e France except P...

Dear Theoderich.
Thanks for the confirmation.

It would be great to identify the silversmith, in order to more precise for the date of production of the piece.
Do you know reference book for Schwäbisch Gmünd silver, even in German ?

Hello, Pic 1, left to right : Hard to read, but seems to be A in a circle : Paris, 1789-92 … with a crown and to point : silversmith mark, but definitely unreadable P topped with 89 an a crown : dating letter of Paris, 1789-92 Pic 2 : Leave of a grapewine : “decharge” for Paris, 1789-92 Are these ma...

Hello, I would like to have more information relative to these marks, but unfortunately I have very few books related to German silver. http://hpics.li/fba89ff http://hpics.li/fba89ff What I read : H or JH in a square : unidentified mark, maybe the silversmith one K with a dot upside and a dot on th...

Dear Ubaranda, Thank you for your confirmation. Can you give me the reference of the book from which the image is extracted ? I am surprised that for a main city like Barcelona, the book displays the mark for 16th c.,1825, but not for 17th c nor 18th c. ! I seems that there is not so many books abou...

Tanks for your help Trev !

Hello, I would like to have more information relative to these marks, but unfortunatly I do not have any book relating to Spanish silver. What I read : - CAR/XO : silversmith ? - BAR under a star ? : probably Barcelona, XVIIIe s., but I could not be more precise. - unidentified mark (mark proving th...

Hi, We can see the Minerva (France, from 1838 to now), but I suppose you identified it. Concerning the silversmith : his name seems to we fully written, but hard to read. I read : F? or I? HUG?... or HUC?... Unfortunatly, I did not find him on the "Vocabulaire" database (silversmith 1875-1...

Hi, Another remark : the third marks is most probably the one for the purity of silver. I guess that "D.G / 9.20 / ..." stands for "9 deniers 20 grains" (old French measure). I saw a similar marks for a silver item from Colmar (Alsace) ; unfortunatly, there is very few documentat...

Hello Ringo, I am not a specialist in Swiss silver, but the few Swiss marks I saw were quite close to yours. I own a book on Swiss silver marks, but could not access it before several weeks (the book is in a different place). What we can observe is that : - KELLER, probably the silversmith, is a nam...

Hello,

Did you have a look toward Swiss production and marks ?

Thank you

It is not the "A" of Paris.

It could be austrian nevertheless.
