Silver Snuffbox England ~1750 - 1790

[Lucypher]

Hi Guys,

Today I bought a piece at a local fleemarket.
It seems to be a snuffbox made in GB est. 18- 19. century.
There is the typical lion mark and Leopard mark.
There are NINE ! more stamps.

I would be pleased if someone could give me some information about the stamps!

kind regards, Patrick

Hi welcome to the forum.

The snuff box is made in Germany Hanau and probably by Storck & Sinsheimer. See:

(F) foreign, import marks for London, date letter P for 1890 see:

I am not sure but if the importer's mark reads:S.H., it could be Solomon Herz & Co.
