Help with Egyptian hallmarks

Post by dancula »

These marks are on a small fairly recent silver tray. I think the fineness is 900 but unsure about city and date marks. Any suggestions?
Thank you.

Hi there,

It has a city mark of Cairo
Country mark of Egypt 1946-2005
and lastly a date mark that has been used between April 2002 and June 2006;

Hence the item is most likely hallmarked between 2002 and 2005.

World Hallmarks v.II p.97

Hope that helps,
Connor
