Hello,
when I click on the photo with the small dog's mark I just get the site of Capodaj but no enlarged picture. Can you optimise?
What letter is shown in the five-lobed Diana mark and have you got a picture?

Thank you so much Krisztián!

Sorry for °Hugarian", of course it should be "Hungarian".

Thanks a lot for your recognition JayT and the fun of the chase was a reward in itself.

Hello Trev.,

Yesterday I had a contact to Allan Nobel Andreasson because on his website on Danish silver marks I found the same entry as on 925-1000: Evald Nielsen 1905-1931. Perhaps this is the contradicting source. Here is what he posted to me:

"The Danish register for silver marks made by ...

Hello Trev.,

today I had a look into the reference book cited by Wikipedia.

" EN - SOLIST I SØLV: En biografi om sølvsmeden Evald Nielsen" by Chr. Rimestad, 2010.

On the page 104 the author describes the financial success of Evald Nielsen in the 20ies despite the economic depressions of that ...

Hello to you all,

the 925-1000 entry for Evald Nielsen, Danish Makers' Marks,

http://www.925-1000.com/denmarkE.html

shows him activ from 1905 through 1931. Evald Nielsen is said to have passed away on May 12, 1958. What happened in 1931 that stopped his activities?

Best regards

Dimi

Thanks, I'll try.

Hi Theoderich,
unfortunately I don't know how.

Thank you both,
Moonshine and Theoderich,

for your hints on where the slice could come from. I am sorry to say that I couldn't get any further. In case of a provenance from Thuringia or Saxony the informations on silversmiths in this area for me are hard to find. A Brazilian provenance was a ...

Hello to everybody,

this small server on foot - probably not a tazza - arrived some time ago as "Trondheim" with a "?". In the course of time the "?" in my eyes grew bigger and bigger. The mark with the initials has the shape of the Trodheim assay mark though, but the combination of both in one ...

Good evening sandman,

Your card case seems to have been made by the jeweller Marius Metz, 58 Rue de Rome, Paris ,75, France. The date of his insculptation was June 27th 1924. The mark on your first picture looks like the "Small Garantee Boar" you find in the 925-1000 database section French ...

This should be better.

Hello,

Can anybody help to identify the marks "PH" and "10"? I am roaming around Bergen, Tønder, and -less probable - Ulm.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you so much, and I am highly impressed!

Hello,

This case bears quite a strange hallmark that means a question mark to me. Does anyone know something about it!

Best regards

Thank you AG2012,

You are absolutely right and I should have had a closer lock into R³. It's a mark somewhere between 2704 and 2705 applied in the 1. half of the 18th century.
The hallmark on the right is R³ 2764 with no maker's name given.

Thanks again with best regards
