[QUOTE="quirkygirl, post: 283218, member: 106"]Thank you, Any Jewelry! For confirmation of 'where' :) and for giving me hope on the hallmark. I saw the shape was [I]correct[/I] for the boar mark - and the boar mark makes sense ... but I just can't make out the details - I'd expect to see at least a tusk ... or an ear ... something. I think I've been trying to see it on the wrong side of the stamping (what I thought was the back of the stamping may really be the front! :rolleyes:) Since I was able to clean up the maker mark with a sunshine cloth and the tip of a toothpick (it looked like a "T" in the middle to me too - before I cleaned them), I'll work on the hallmarks a bit today with the same and see if they present themselves any clearer.[/QUOTE]
