Hello,
I wondered if these silver brooches were old and where they are from specifically. They each have these two marks as shown. Also what do the marks signify.
Thank you,
Tom

See Egypt on the foreign marks page and then search the forum for "egypt", there is a fair amount of info posted.

I see, the mark on the pin (3rd photo) is the three marks in the Fforeign marks under Egypt, I thought it was a word in Arabic or something. Now I can see them clearly but looks like my photo is upside down.
I had a feeling on Egypt by the depictions but thought someone may know something about them specifically for interests sake.
Thanks admin, again,
Tom
