Mark too worn to ID

Post by roundman »

I have a monogrammed fork from my family silver chest with a maker mark that is too worn to identify. I have compared it to all of the pictorial images on the website; but didn’t find a match. Can anyone identify the mark? The mark is followed byu the word STERLING.

Bingo!

I found the exact piece at:

I had looked twice at the Manchester logo; but discarded it. But your post sent me to Replacements to at least check it out.

Thanks for your effort and tip!
