I have a brooch that appears to be of Iraqi origin based on what little I can find on the internet. I think the hallmark indicates a city of assay on top and the Arabic numerals for 80 on the bottom (meaning 80 percent silver). I don't know what the symbol for city of assay means though (which city it signifies) and I also don't know the time period during which this type of mark was used. Can anyone help?
