GT EC 7 Cross not plated.

I realize this looks like a plated mark. But I have cut reasonably deeply and it tests silver. It has a deep patina, and short of cutting really deep, I am reasonably sure it is solid silver.

Hi Maurice,

Your suspicions are correct.

See Emidio Critien of Valletta here: viewtopic.php?f=38&t=33204

I used the "search" for EC malta, but it didn't turn up anything, I should have just gone to the posting.
Any idea who GT is?

Thanks,
Maurice

Hi Maurice,

No idea I'm afraid, presumably the assayer or head of the Maltese guild at that time.
