<p>[QUOTE="JTR, post: 2337355, member: 2254"][USER=10944]@J Dagger[/USER] - Good morning and thank you for your response! I would have to agree that the mug is very heavy for silver but it is also very robust and on the larger side as far as mugs go. The side walls are about 1/8" and the base of the mug is even thicker. Surprisingly, the handle is hollow. </p><p><br /></p><p>I appreciate that you went against the grain (half way at least haha) in saying that it doesn't look plated. I personally have gained enough knowledge over the years to know it is not plated. It's just a matter of finding out more about the mug. I think I'm going to take it in to a reputable person/company and see what they say because without hallmarks, it's very difficult to know what I have found here. I'll post my findings. </p><p><br /></p><p>All the best to you and thanks a million for your response! </p><p><br /></p><p>Jon[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
