<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DragonflyWink, post: 9928447, member: 111&quot;]Nice piece!&nbsp; Wish these old eyes could make out all the marks, but can see that the mark at far right is an &#039;84&#039; rather than &#039;88&#039; - the fineness is .900, so it wouldn&#039;t have been stamped &#039;88&#039; since it wouldn&quot;t meet the minimum .916 (88 zolotnik) quality.</p><p><br /></p><p>Can&#039;t say I&#039;ve heard of a Fabergé/Scheid connection either, other than pieces of their extremely fine enamel work are found with fake Fabergé stamps, usually overstamped or the Scheid marks removed.&nbsp; Russian silver was and is so widely faked, that similar Continental silver by other makers also had their marks replaced with Russian marks, not just Fabergé...</p><p><br /></p><p>~Cheryl[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
