5 point Crown over shield mark on silver bowl Help please

Postby zongo » Sun Oct 24, 2010 8:26 pm

Hello.
I am a new member so I hope I am posting in the right place. I read all the advices etc. I have recentley developed an interest in old metalware. I have a set of two bowls which appear very old. I have looked at most of the hallmarks on the site I think? But, I could not find anything like this. (unless I can't see the forest through the trees?)
I would appreciate if someone can help in advising me of the origin & age of these please? Pictures listed below. Fingers x that this works.

Hello Patrick.

Thank you very very much for the reply and answer. I really appreciate the effort of the forum. I am learning alot so that is good. A mystery mark. Maybe if I ever find out that will be good. But if not, it does not matter as I am learning.

Thanks again to you and all the people that gave some thought. I shall keep collecting and learning. :)

Dan
