Re: 750 Silver

Hello, a German origin is possible. The mark 750 would imply a production after the metric system was introduced in the German States at the end of th 1850ies.

750 Silver

During what time period did countries use 750 silver? And what countries used it? I have a very nice fibula crossbow brooch that is simply marked 750. It is designed with a dragon head. I'm trying to date it.
Thank you,
Carol
