German 12 Loth Silver Fork 4

Postby dw171 » Sun Sep 13, 2015 4:16 pm

Last of 4 German silverware with 12 marks. I'm confident they are 12 Loth silver, but I can't decipher any city/assay marks to verify their silver content. And with it being 12 which was also used on plated items I'd like to know for sure either way. I'm not sure if the hallmarks are the right side up, only basing it on the 12 mark. This fork is 8 1/4" long. Its got one extra mark by the 12 than all the other pieces. Its very faded but next to the 12 looks like an X or the bottom of a wreath. This one also has the most wear on the handle than any other piece. The other mark looks like a fancy A with either a 3 or a backwards E next to it. It may be hard to see in the picture, but its just as hard to try and read in person. Thanks for any help
