If you look on the rim above the Gorham maker mark of lion, anchor and letter G....you will see the word STERLING. I assume you understand that this means solid silver of 925 parts per 1000.

The numbers 3355 are of no significance. They are internal manufacturing numbers either relating to the pattern or batch/order numbers.


Regards,
Steve
