<p>[QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 239165, member: 44"]After working with the maker's mark pic, I think it is "B&M" over a star. Now if it is an "n," I have seen "n" stand for "&" also. In Dutch "n" may stand "for en." Whether it is the mark of Baksteen & Middendorp or not, I don't know for I can't find a pic of their mark to compare it to. Have found several examples of their silver, but no pic of the mark. I agree the other mark is a Dutch sword mark. Even on zooming and editing the mark, don't know which sword mark: the 1814 to 1905, 1906 to 1953. Sorry, I having any more help for you.</p><p><br /></p><p>Links to the Dutch sword marks that you have no doubt seen because you know it is a Dutch hallmark.
