Parrot Key Ring- Mark is unclear

Post by AnnaCatherine »

Hi there I am new to the forum and new to the world of silver makers marks and such. I have a cool Parrot Key ring that is marked MEXICO and .925. There is am etched "58" also. Not certain if that means anything or not. What I can't make out is the first letter/number of the stamp that sits to the left of the .925 stamp. I hope the photos will be able to help. I THINK they say 0357. The 7 does not seem to be a 2 as the 2 in the .925 mark is loopier(Is this a word?). Any help on this will be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

The four digit number could be a design number and the etched on was likely added by an owner at some point.
