So I bought this brooch for a song a few days ago. It was in a lot that came from Italy. I only saw one picture of it from the front. From the picture I thought it could be silver, and indeed, it is. I m not good at determining stamps, so you can imagine my surprise when I noticed this stamp was used by famous silversmith William Spratling from Taxco, Mexico. I think I saw the stamp is from 1960-1964, but the eagle stamp is not right. From what I could see, it should have a 'eagle30' stamp and this one has a 'eagle 63' stamp. Can someone please take a look and tell me if my brooch is a true William Spratling or not? Here in Europe we dont often see these sort of brooches, and we definitely dont have any experience in right/fake stamps of this artist. Thank you very much![/QUOTE]
