Hi all, I'm new here to the forum and not massively up to speed with silver markings but I was browsing the local charity shop today and noticed some markings on to my eye an ugly boat plaque, the research I have done puts it as scandanavian and 830 silver, it has an ANO stamp next to what looks like a fish stamp then the 830 silver stamp, but I'm not sure so would very much appreciate any help you can throw my direction, cheers.

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

That is a mark used by the Cyprus Assay Office.

In future posts please remember that you are far more likely to get a response if you embed your images as very few people will click on such links.
