ok know what I S means now how about the doves with the M

[T]

I just remembered the I S means international silver so now we just need to know where to find out what the two doves with the M stamped in the middle means. Thanks a mill people. Oh if anyone knows of a good reference book to find these symbols out we would appreciate it. T

Sounds like Baker-Manchester. http://www.925-1000.com/american-mfg01.html Would recommend Dorothy Rainwater's Encyclopedia of American Silver Manufacturers.

Thankyou for the reply we felt it was Manchester also and now that we look at the symbols closer it is the same marks. Thank you very much for your time. T
