[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9730998, member: 2844"]Lovely design, Marie. I usually stay away from initial brooches, but this is very decorative as well. Some Eagle marks are actually city marks. Eagle 1 is the city mark for Mexico City, so it is stamped on the works of numerous silversmiths. Seems strange together with a Taxco stamp, but I've seen stranger things on jewellery.;) Numbers were added to eagles in 1955, so no. Maybe the design number? I do think this was made in the early years of numbered Eagles.[/QUOTE]
