Thanks! I was comparing it to that early "AP" mark and just couldn't decide!
So any ideas who this "AP" is?

Taxco Screwback earrings is this an Antonio Pineda Mark?

Hi all. I can't decide if this is his mark or not! But I can't find another "AP" maker so? What's your opinion?

Coin Silver salt spoons D Parmely dates?

I'm having trouble with dating the maker on these. I can find only one reference to a Daniel Parmely, but it has conflicting dates; one says 18th C., other 1860. Does anyone have any information on this maker? Thanks for your time. http://www.deadzoom.com/users/shelina/csaltsp2.JPG http://www.deadzo...

Mod Design Ring 925 lady with helmet and other Russian?

Hi, I have this sort of modern design sterling ring that I could use a bit of help with. It's got the 925 mark with the woman, along with another mark that kind of looks like cyrillic to me, but?? Does anyone recognize either of these marks? TIA for any help! http://www.deadzoom.com/users/shelina/fo...

PLata de Jalisco Gl & other marks bolero clip maker/date

Hi everyone, I have this little bolero clip (I guess that's what you'd call it), with the markings as shown. I believe the one is an Eagle mark, so after 1948 (or '58 - can't remember which off of the top of my head). Can anyone help with a maker/date on this? TIA for any help! http://www.deadzoom.c...

Wow, you people are good! I actually know that EPNS is silveplated - but would never have seen those marks as letters! I thought the middle one was a head :). Now, of course, it's as plain as day! Thanks much.

Wood, silver and porcelain humidor with touchmarks

Sorry, I would have described the marks better, but they're a bit worn. I'm researching this for a friend; she thought the metal was pewter until she found these marks, and it does look like it will clean up nicely. It's got a wood shell with a porcelain insert. I'm hoping maybe someone will recogni...

Flatware with four leaf clover and "90" marks

HI - I promise I have looked and can't find this mark. I'm pretty sure this set is European, as it was found with a bunch of other silver pieces marked "800". Am I right in thinking that the "90" is the purity? I'm sure it could be something else, but am really at a loss; thus it...

Thanks! Funny - I was just about to come over here to suggest the same maker (got an answer on another board), and ask if the post shouldn't be moved! I have googled "Ernst Gideon Bek, Inc" but haven't found a picture of the mark to compare.

Sterling Mesh purse Butterfly mark whose is it?

HI - I promise I looked on the marks page first (under pictorial) but didn't find it! This will probably be an easy one for you guys! It's a Sterling mesh bag, marked "STERLING" with a butterfly before the sterling. Can you help with the maker? http://www.deadzoom.com/member/shelina/meshba...

Help w/mark? A lion a W? Co. and a crown

I'm assuming that this is plate since it has the "NS" underneath the mark, but I haven't been able to find this maker. Does anyone know? Thanks for any help!

Confused Stephen Richard NY or Samuel Richards Philly?

I hope this isn't too dumb, since the Stephen Richard is minus the "S" - but the marks are so close! I'm pretty sure it's Samuel Richards of Philly, but just want to verify and get a date range? The only date I've found so far is 1795, but no range. Thanks for any help! http://www.deadzoom...
