[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 345083, member: 2844"]Yes they are in the helmet, and always at an angle, like this one. And it is the M for Schoonhoven, as you already discovered. The M was used from 1837-1984. They closed down most of the assay offices, which is a pain. Schoonhoven is still our silver town, and it is where the present day training college for silversmiths is. The right facing lion is for .833 silver, and Bakers, you're right, the N is the one for 1872. Resident Netherlanders can be of use sometimes.;):cool:[/QUOTE]
