nihontochicken Posts: 289 Registered: May 2003	posted 02-16-2005 09:04 PM [01-2219] Here are some hallmarks on a fiddle pattern ladle that don't make sense to me: Crown doesn't look quite right for Sheffield. And "beaver passant"??? "A" with serifs could be Sheffield 1844, but should have a Victoria bust duty mark (or might be post-1918? - I don't have those marks listed). Could these be Canadian pseudo hallmarks? "A" = 1936? Or just silverplate pseudo hallmarks (intended to deceive?). TIA for all enlightenment! IP: Logged

Because this is plate, the "date" mark means nothing. Only info on the company would give you a ballpark date. TM IP: Logged
