<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Debora, post: 4495219, member: 1476&quot;]D.F. stands for <i>Distrito Federal</i> or Federal District in English.&nbsp; It&#039;s a suffix that follows México, the city, to distinguish it from México, the country.&nbsp; (The U.S. parallel would be Washington the state vs. Washington the District of Columbia or D.C.)&nbsp; I&#039;m not terribly familiar with Mexican silver marks but I believe at one point pieces carried the location of the <i>taller</i> or workshop.&nbsp; If I&#039;m reading the mark on your piece correctly, that would narrow your search to a silversmith working in México, D.F. and not another location such as Taxco.</p><p><br /></p><p>Debora[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
