[QUOTE="DragonflyWink, post: 10161916, member: 111"]First of all, believe Martha has spent a little too much time with Snoop, because that page is just filled with silly misinformation. Really would be nice to see the piece and actual marks, but understand the situation. Italian silver makers in the 20th century did use faked old marks, and I'm a bit troubled by an 'ITALY' stamp. Like AJ, believe the 'IAB' would be a maker's mark, first to admit that my eyes are failing, but am having a hard time seeing a crowned head in the second mark, the third mark is an 1826-32 Sicilian .833 mark, shown at bottom right in the pic, but have no idea whether genuine or not...
