thank you.

Silver spoon marked with Dutch sword (19th century version), mark 9C I believe as I can see a thin separation line between 9 and C, and possibly the mark JSS in a cursive font. Anyone recognize these marks or ideas? https://i.ibb.co/FHtssdx/IMG-20190105-121845.jpg https://i.ibb.co/dGtRY3k/IMG-201901...

Spoon with leiden city mark, maker I:K. I could not determine the date or maker because of conflicting dates/style of marks. I also noticed the lion doesn't have a crown. I checked Citroen "marks prior to 1812" and zilvermerken van voet. Please advice. https://i.ibb.co/T1qCbKb/IMG-20190104...

Spoon with silver marks: number 12 in square cartouche, three clovers in shield shaped cartouche, mark letters possibly vk or vr with 5 petal flower above.

Similar combination guild mark/date letter appears here: https://www.925-1000.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=32028&p=107190&hilit=double+eagle+crown#p107190 Not conclusive. So they might be Dutch marks. Thank you very much. Is it alright to repost in the Dutch section or should I ask a m...

Silver Spoon marked with double headed eagle with crown on top and date letter below. I do not know if this is a pseudo/fake mark or what country. Russian, german? https://i.ibb.co/0G0HFc0/IMG-20181220-143516.jpg https://i.ibb.co/HpDjF6T/IMG-20181220-144014.jpg https://i.ibb.co/HHTGmCb/IMG-20181220-...

That is so cool.

Tested the edge on my nail and it is too dull to catch like a knife. Although I think it certainly is meant to slice something.

Fork made of steel with decorative fire? gilding. Decorations include flowers that look like roses and two fishes crossing each other. Very shallow engravings of roses en fishes throughout. The most left prong is extra wide and has a sharp left side. The handle is made of silver with Dutch mark from...

thank you once again peter for your thorough analysis.

Silver spoon with woman and kids. Dutch guild marks, rampant lion, gentleman with ponytail. Are these fake marks, can you recognize the town and date? https://i.ibb.co/JKRmW3T/IMG-20181212-134619.jpg https://i.ibb.co/F7chtpS/IMG-20181212-134454.jpg https://i.ibb.co/W2qdsPT/IMG-20181212-134540.jpg ht...

Hi, There seems to be one more mark (red arrow) but it does not help much,either. No that is just the embossed/debossed decorative part. Yes I was hoping someone can recognize the style/making and read the engraving, maybe it has a date! Should I post in another area of the forum? The shown mark is...

Dear 925, I have this silver cup (tested) with what looks like Judaic designs and engraved text. 10,5cm height including bird. On The foot is one worn mark. Can someone translate the engraving? Antique or fake? https://preview.ibb.co/b5zFEf/IMG-20181115-151411.jpg https://image.ibb.co/gfS2uf/IMG-201...

marvelous, thank you oel.

Most 18th century beakers were raised on stake from a single sheet of silver. Much easier later technique was creating beaker walls from bent sheet of silver and then soldering bottom and even rim, red arrows in your beaker. Regards Ah I see, thank you. Very useful knowledge. Could you take a look ...

Just to be clear, with the possibility of missing marks, I can't say it is not German...only that we can not positively say it is. The lack of evidence is not evidence of a lack. How's that for a tongue twister? I had to bring out my calculator for this one. @Aleks very nice. you recognized it? tha...

Silver teapot with marks on base. 6 petal flower or berries, Roman numerals IV, letter Z, possibly rampant lion with crown. Modern Dutch silver purity mark Z1 ( small mark below IV).

Hi, Is conjoined HB the only mark on your beaker,i.e. besides „Tremolierstich“ (zig zag line) ? There were at least 3 silversmiths in Augsburg with HB similar to those shown. I think Augsburg acorn in the description does not match 1650. After all, your beaker can be German, but of much later date ...
