<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MrNate, post: 1267085, member: 5515&quot;]Well,</p><p><br /></p><p>If you haven&#039;t noticed, I&#039;ve been very busy online lately, it&#039;s pretty much my new thing to do. So, I purchased this set awhile ago and it arrived in the mail today. I saw a couple of interesting items, and it wasn&#039;t expensive at all. I didn&#039;t even ask for additional photos as I figured I&#039;d just roll the dice:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]217026[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Initially I thought I struck out completely, as I couldn&#039;t find a good mark on a single item. The goblet was what caught my eye, and I was disappointed when I couldn&#039;t find a single silver mark on it. I gently squeezed the edges of the cup, and it had that silver springy feel I&#039;ve felt many times. I decided to acid test it, and to my excitement it came back time and time again testing as silver from the same scraping location. So now I was genuinely confused, I looked over the item very carefully again and again. I could only find one mark on the bottom... So, on to my question:</p><p><br /></p><p>Is there a way to confirm age/origin/purity since this item isn&#039;t really marked?</p><p><br /></p><p>PS: I should mention what drew my eye to the goblet was the tarnish pattern on the inside of the cup. I don&#039;t know how to describe this, but I like it when I see it as it seems to be correlated with real silver (is this the rolling process that creates small ridges?) Price was $18 total.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]217027[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]217028[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]217029[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]217030[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]217031[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
