Re: confirmation of mark

Hi Phil, Thanks for your thoughts. I was basing this off Irish due to Cormick possibly being the maker. I found a few items with this having a punch in a square with just MC but you mention others which is very helpful. There is another mark but it is very obliterated. I had the item tested and it c...

Re: Argentine Mark on Bolo?

Thanks Trev,

These are the only marks, the others are marked similarly. I am still digging around on this one, it has proven to be quite a challenge.

Many thanks again for embedding my mark image!

Best,
Elizabeth

Hi, I have this Persian Shamshir sword and recently discovered the marks on the sheath but cannot locate what these marks mean. I think the last area could be a number as in 24 or 29, but i also think it could be an animal given further research. Does anyone have any ideas on these marks? Below plea...

Re: candlestick hallmark

Interesting. I see that the Stockholm company did silver as well as silver plate. Thanks for this great lead. I saw the mark below is G but it is backwards and the G dates to 1768 which this company was not in business then. Could this mark mean something else?
