    MrNate would be proud. I knew it was silver and I found the tiny marks right away (They were pretty obvious though). I wanted to confirm that I got the marks right on this small, silver-capped, crystal jar. I think it is the Copenhagen City Mark with a 59 in the water for the year 1959, and the Grann & Laglye Mark next to it. I couldn't find any examples of a covered jar like this, but I might have been using the wrong search terms. I don't know if the little doodad on the top has any significance. I'm not sure what its purpose is either. It is 4 1/2 inches tall and 4 inches in diameter at its widest point. Any help would be most appreciated.

    I'm wondering why there is no assay master mark.

    Would it be somewhere else?

    No, it should be on the piece, often near the 3 towers, it is the master who punches that mark too.

    I seem to recall, I have a spoon set, with no assayed mark. Let me look through photos.

    Pretty powder jar. Regarding Danish marks, they were/are voluntary, and are notoriously varied, often without adherence to 'regulations' - there's nothing particularly unusual in your marks...

    So, this is rather ambiguous and irrelevant to yours. Mine has mark of Christian Heise, who I believe was an assayer and later a Maker, so not relevant.

    I think your jar is really pretty, too! I hope you keep it! :)

    Since I’ve got my photos up, maybe @DragonflyWink might know something about them? They are Demitasse size. The date is 1938. They were my grandfathers, who came from Copenhagen.

    Sorry, to interrupt your thread, Kiko. :)
