Good Morning, I had one of the salt cellars tested by a local assayer using EDXRF. The report came back with the pieces testing as 87.04% AG or silver. I wonder if they might by Hanau silver marks, however I remain confused! Any thoughts appreciated. Thank you again! Victoria https://i.postimg.cc/WF...

Hello Peter, Thank you for your speedy reply. I wonder if you might be able to direct me as to where to look for this mark (or should I move this over to the silverplate section?). With you advice, I searched about the animal skin mark and cannot find any references. Would you have an idea of where ...

Hello, I am seeking help on identifying the hallmarks on this salt cellar. I found a listing of what appear to be similar pieces online and they said they thought they might be Hanau. Thank you for any expertise and assistance. Best, Victoria https://i.postimg.cc/zVts23F8/1A.jpg https://i.postimg.cc...

Hello, I am seeking help to identify the maker/origin of this piece. It had a tag in it saying that it was American, but I am unsure. The mark is a lion rampant and 925. Thank you for taking a look! Victoria https://i.postimg.cc/8JZMyvQx/IMG-9937.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/2L3vg5Cy/IMG-9938.jpg

Hi, I have a set of spoons that I believe are German and silver, however I cannot find the marks and wonder if they might be Hanau marks. Any help or insight is appreciated!

Hi, I have this covered tureen and thought it was silverplate, until I started researching the mark... now I believe it may be coin silver but I am unsure. Any help and history is appreciated! The Gorham history is a bit confusing as far as marks. This piece also has like a six pointed sun/star mark...

Thank you both!
I was confused because the marks that I found spelled out Warner.
I appreciate your expertise!
Happy Holidays.

Hi, I believe that this piece may be Andrew Ellicott Warner coin silver, but I am just not sure because I could not find a hallmark of his that looks like this. Any thoughts or help appreciated!

Dear 'MGArgent',

Thank you for your assistance! I hope that Theo can help. There are no other marks found on the piece, should I still take additional photos?
