Scandinavian silver marks help id please

[Justin Gill]

Hi this ia a heavy bangle that turned up in a box of old tools from a container from Denmark . The mark looks like 3 men in a boat inside a shield . The 3 men appear to have 3 small crowns above their heads . This boat etc is inside a shield and there is what looks like the number 10 in the top of the shield . Above the shield is a crown . Around the bottom of the shield there is a wreath . any help would be great thanks

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

I strongly suspect this to be an Algerian piece. Hopefully someone can add some information.

I agree, Algeria or Morocco, the left and center marks are none too clear and may have been intentionally effaced. The right hand mark is rectangular and has been overstamped with the crowned shield mark with the boat, I think we might be seeing a mark from Libya for the first time. Below is the seal of Tripoli.

Hello,

Let me add to the previous contributor's correct regional location and specify it even more. This is a Beduoin Libyan piece.
