Message:: [QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 256065, member: 44"]Good mornin' OBB. Couldn't **you** at least have come up with an easy Mexico silver  mark!!! Gee, we haven't had an easy one in years. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/wink.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=";)" unselectable="on" /> Will we ever see one with a distinct maker's mark and/or a recognizable registration number. With my old eyes, I have to at least try editing the image in hopes of seeing it better. Welllll, I still not sure what the registration number is. It could be TS-79??? If it is TS-79, Hougart has under the Registration Numbers, p. 268: "TS-79 Two trees mark." Now to figure out what he means by "Two trees mark." Wellll I can't find anything in his book about a Two tree mark. I don't know if it means there would be a 2 tree maker's mark also on the silver or if that is the name of the silversmith company??? Only thing I can tell you that you no doubt already know is that registration numbers weren't used until after whenever..... just a minute to find that date... 1980. Obviously one and all can tell I'm on my first cup of tea. Nowwwwww, I'm not 100% certain the RN is TS-79. Looking at the very few pages Hougart has on listed RNs, TS-79 is the only "T" with "79." Nowwww is that an "S," is that "79"???? --- Susan [ATTACH=full]79495[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
