Please Help-? I.D. Sterling Marks Canadian Bagpiping Medals

Post by midela »

I have inherited my Mom's Bagpiping Medals, most of which date from the Early 40's to the 60's.
Some have the word "Sterling" engraved, and some kind of Mark, which I assume to be a Sterling Maker's Mark.
Others have no mark at all, but appear to silver of some kind, although heavily tarnished.
At the time, "Birks" was a Nationally Famous Maker and Commissioner of Medals of all types,
though I'm sure that there may have been other companies crafting Medals from Sterling Silver.
There were also a few British and American companies as well, I've been told.
I have enclosed Pictures.
I would appreciate any kind of guidance, Please!
Hmm, clicked on img, can't insert img, will send in a separate post if I can!

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

Your question cannot be answered without the required images. The below should help you:

How to Add Images

Posting Requirements

http://www.postimg.com is recommended. Embedded images get a far greater response than just posting links.

Remember to use the 'Preview' button before submitting your post.

Give some time to creating your posts and photos, we'll give some time to researching and answering them.
