[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 465804, member: 2844"]The words Plata Real are the maker's mark. It seems it is generally without the crown, and sometimes with a crown, according to Hougart: [ATTACH=full]159162[/ATTACH] There is no mention of an added double-headed eagle in the book, but Mexican marks can be very inconsistent. Maybe only added for a special baby's cup edition?;)[/QUOTE]
