ericside Posts: 33 Registered: Aug 2001	posted 04-22-2002 07:45 AM Hello...I have a Mark that is puzzling me I thought at first French but maybe Austria....it has a 930/1000 for the silver content. A Raised outline of a Bat maybe the Maker? Plus 2 hallmarks a Profile of a Head facing left..wearing a Laurel Wreath...and a square with the letter A inside. Thank you for all your help Roger IP: Logged

Brent Posts: 1507 Registered: May 99	posted 04-23-2002 11:20 PM Based on a review of Tardy, my first guess is that your marks are Austrian, and date to between 1866 and 1872. If I am right, the A would be an import mark, and your piece would have been made elsewhere. A picture of the piece might help us determine the country of origin. Brent IP: Logged
