[QUOTE="afantiques, post: 9048, member: 25"]At some stage someone has tested it for silver(the V gouges and the acid mark) I'd say it is not a British mark, no one would get away with a pre 1821 leopard's head and the marks don't have a 'British' stamp look about them, more like typical pseudo marks. It is not rust or verdegris, just tarnish.[/QUOTE]
