<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 332487, member: 5833"]It's weird. Maybe not to you as you know so much more about marks on imported silver than I do. The marks on the RL piece are in nice rectilinear cartouches & certainly could be the Birmingham anchor. The 2 punch marks on OP's piece are sloppy by comparison, in a more round cartouche. Would Israel have used a Roman letter as part of their marks? Just rattling on here. Guess we should look into whether 2 marks on this piece could be eroded punches for some other British assay office.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
