I am having hard time finding this hallmark, can anyone help?

Thank you!

Maybe an angel or an alien, but definitely silver. Acid and thermal gun tested.

I just bought an antique three-legged salver. It has a hallmark that to me looks like a walking saint, but that may be only my imagination. Any help out there? Thank you!

I know this is silver forum, but I just cannot find where to post this question. Recently I found 18k ring with designer mark that I cannot identify. Anyone out there with more information on this?

Thank you!

I need help identifying strange hallmarks on a beaker. Beaker look to be either French or German, but I have never seen hallmarks like these. I browsed through Rosenberg, but I was not able to find anything matching.

Thank you!

Thank you all for replies. This is a very well made, hand hammered beaker. Nice product from Hanau.

I need some help identifying the marks on a German beaker.

Thanks!

So what do you guys think of these hallmarks, where there is no assayer mark? I am just curious.

Thanks!

Thanks a lot! During what years was he active?

I need some help attributing Leipzig marks. It appears to say FAP for the silver smith.

20 years one could not find pieces from Grodno - now they are flooding the market. Where came they from? Found in a forgotten Grodno warehouse? The same for Vilnius. Of course, there is plenty of fakes circulating, but partial answer to the above question is: internet. Tons of silver were moved fro...

Thanks Zolotnik, please supply an outlet where I can purchase these. I would love to have these in my library.

Zolotnik, I tend to disagree with your post. It is very important, what's in the book about Lithuanian silver. If there are examples of Russian silver hallmarks without the assayer mark and year, than this is a clear indication that those hallmarks existed. They are in the book! (Lietuvos Auksakalys...

I have a book at home for Lithuanian silver. There are few examples of hallmarks without assayer mark (just 84, maker's mark, and a city mark). I used to have two pieces of Polish silver, which were produced before 1851 (silversmith died before 1851), but were counter-marked with "84" on t...

According to information I found on the web, the city was occupied by French/Polish soldiers (under Hieronim Bonaparte) in 1812 from June 2nd to December 8th. I think it is safe to assume a lot of Russian regulations were ignored at the time. Also, Russification of the city was not really started un...

Thanks Dad!

There is no assay master mark on my item, just city mark, silversmith, and 84.

and one more:

Qrt.S, I share your concerns when it comes to Russian silver forgeries and am always very careful when making a purchase decision. However, in this case the item is at least mid. 19th century item, but the marks...well, there may be different opinion about them. I think they look good, but I don't d...

Can anyone help me identifying this Russian hallmark? I tend to attribute this to Hrodna or Vilnus, but I am not 100% sure about this.

Thanks!
