I wonder if you would be as kind to help me identify markings on 3 Snuff Boxes I have.
I am new to the forum, and not sure how to attach photos.
Would be most appreciated

When you manage to embed the images, please, one item per post; three snuffboxes = three posts, titled e.g. snuffbox 1, 2 and 3 in appropriate sections.
