Hi Bahner Thank you for your reply, we appreciate your time. Very interesting to hear that this piece is in the Neresheimer archives, you say dated 1902, is that the photograph or the piece? Do you know if it is possible to access these archives online as we would love to see an original photograph....

Thank you so much for the help with this hallmark - is this ship an example of a german silver nef?

Does anybody recognise the other hallmark to the left of the 'N' - sorry about the focus but the hallmark is worn so hard to see the detail.

thank you very much for your quick reply - I will look into Neresheimer
thanks

there are two sets of hallmarks on this galleon, the one that is unidentified is the left hand one of the lower image. If anyone can help identify it's origin and the likely history of the galleon we would be very pleased to know. many thanks http://aycu22.webshots.com/image/39381/200597634669686845...

Could anyone please give us some ideas as to the origin of this silver galleon? - someone has suggested a portuguese link but we don't know anything about it other than it was given to my great grandfather to settle a debt. It's sails are at present not attached but one of them is shown in the photo...
