Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

Your question cannot be answered without the required images. The below should help you:

and: http://www.925-1000.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=42199

http://www.postimg.com is recommended. Embedded images get a far greater response than just posting links.

Hi

The picture of the marks is pretty blurry / imprecise. I reckon it is either 1962 or 1987 - hard to tell the difference. It depends on the shape of the cartouche (shape of the punched mark).

Maker is unknown to me. Maybe someone else may know.

Regards

Also, not sure about late 1800s (per your earlier message). You don't have a duty mark - and your date letter appears to be a capital (not lower case). Anyway, have a look at this great page run by forum member PhilO and see which of the date letters fit (http://www.silvermakersmarks.co.uk/Date ... s%20N.html).

Regards

Looks like 1987 to me
