Hello. This is an old rosary that has two marks on it. The numeral 12 would mean .075 silver. Could anyone tell me what the other mark mean? Thank you very much for your help.

Hello AG2012. Thank you very much for the information. Is the other the maker's mark?

Natsuki

Hello. I have a .835 silver rosary of Our Lady of Fatima, which has an assay mark that looks like a bird profile and another mark which may be a maker's mark. Could anyone identify them? Please help me out. Thanks a lot in advance. https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg https://www.925-1000.com/pics...

¡Muchas gracias! ¿Sabe Ud. la significación de la inscripción "YB"?

Natsuki

Thanks for your knowledgeable opinion. It helps much. Does anyone know the purity of silver the mark signifies?

Natsuki

I did not know the Rosenberg books. Your information on the reference is very precious to me. Thanks a lot for your kind help. Does the shape of the frame denote the assaying or production year of 1860? The medal looks newer to me. Did not they reuse the frame of the same (or similar) shape after so...

I can read English, Spanish, French, and with the help of a dictionary, German. Thanks again!

Natsuki

Wow! How quick. Thanks a lot, indeed. Do you have a book or a website to recommend for the understanding of Spanish marking systems and their identification? Thanks again!

My questions are What kind of silver does the Spanish rampant lion mark signify? Could we date the medal from the mark? What does YB on t...

Hello. I believe this is tin (Sn), not silver. The mark is "Tsugiyama" or "Tsuguyama", a Japanese maker of tin items in Meiji era (the latter half of 19th century). http://www.yamato-kottou.asia/uncategorized/%E7%B6%99%E5%B1%B1%E3%83%BB%E9%8C%AB%E5%8D%8A%E3%81%AE%E9%8C%AB%E8%A3%B...

Hello. I have an antique cross, 44 x 27 mm, which I believe is made of vermeil. It was in France and has three marks on it. Is the figure in the pentagon Austrian Diana's head? Could anyone tell me what these marks mean? Thank you very much in advance. Natsuki http://antiquesanastasia.com/religion/c...

Thank you Trev. You are kind and knowledgeable. I am impressed.

Hello. I have a religious medal which has Jesus on one side and Nuestra Senora de Monserrato on the other. I don't know the material of the medal.
