Silver platter with heraldry engraving

Postby bread_baby » Mon Oct 22, 2018 7:43 am

I have here a large silver plate or platter which has no marks other than the heraldry engraving in the middle of the plate.
Heraldry depicts crown on top, cross on bottom with PFPF, Triple fleur de lis, with arm holding spear and a tree with banner signed "GIED". There is an indented dot in the absolute center on both sides and on the back on the rim there are 6 lines spaced out evenly.

Acquired it in the Netherlands.

Hi Babe, welcome to the forum.
I have moved you to the family crests. The platter has no (hall)marks to indicate solid silver and although it looks like silver it could be made out of a non precious metal and/or silver plated.
Hopefully someone will rekognize the crest.

Peter.

Thanks oel. I overlooked the family crest category, sorry.

Forgot to mention. The platter is Silver. I have filed an edge and tested it with acid.
