Art Deco N.Y. Manhattan college ring with British(?) marks

Postby lenlit » Tue Apr 01, 2008 7:25 am

I wonder if anyone could recognize these marks on a sterling Art Deco ring. The inscription says: Manhattan College New York, but the hallmarks are of European origin, I think. They look British, but I am not sure.
Thank you in advance.

sorry - i for one cannot make out the marks; could you possibly draw them on paper if you cannot submit a clearer, larger photo?

So kind of you to reply that fast... I am posting a new picture. If this doesn't help, I will copy/draw the marks.
Thank you again.

Hi,
I believe it is a variation of the C. M. Robbins mark seen here ->

Thank you! Marvellous! It does look like his mark. Well, I should simply start reading the Online Encyclopedia page by page to get the basic knowledge about silver marks. "You don't have to know everything; you have to know where to look!"

Hi Helen,
318 pages at last count, but not a real page turner. Should you survive, let us know how it went.
Regards, Tom
