<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Silver, post: 318001, member: 6202&quot;]Good Day</p><p><br /></p><p>I have a small jar with a hinged lid. Its diameter is about 4cm and height about 3cm. I have reason to believe it came from Egypt or the Sudan.&nbsp; It was acquired from someone who lived in Egypt both before and after the First World War. The interior appears gilded (or could it just be silver plated brass?). </p><p><br /></p><p>I photographed the marks before and after polishing it. Before polishing one mark looked clearly like SR surmounted by a crown. After cleaning the SR is far less clear. I will post both sets of photos. </p><p><br /></p><p>Informed help would be appreciated.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]105696[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]105697[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]105699[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]105700[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]105701[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]105707[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]105708[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
