Hi,
Anyone that recognize these marks?
I doubt it's solid silver but would still be interesting to know the origin.
Thanks in advance!
Arabic silver marks?
Re: Arabic silver marks?
Hello
This is Moroccan from Fes فاس which can be seen in the lower part of the central medallion
The lower script reads معدن فضّة ممتازة and a literal translation is "excellent silver metal" but I don't know what that means in terms of silver content
The upper script is دار (dar) or "house of" but I can't make out the rest. Likely the name of the workshop
Hope this is of interest

This is highly appreciated! I will continue my search and find out somehow if it is solid silver. Have a nice day!
