<p>[QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 25422, member: 44"]I haven't a clue other than probably France. The shape of that cock/rooster punch has me stymied. The first mark isn't any better. It looks like it is divided in half with letters on the top that I can't make out, a dividing line, and 3 symbols on the bottom. With that line through the middle reminds me of Russian assay marks. Those Russian assay marks seem to have a couple of initials on the top and a date on the bottom half. Wonder if that "upside down urn" could be the Russian character for ф with bottom half rubbed off - doubt it. The 3rd mark on our right could be anything from the number "8," "R", "B" to Mickey Mouse.</p><p><br /></p><p>Gee, the silver marks of late have been a mess. Would be nice if a few clear ones were posted.</p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
