nana712 Posts: 2 Registered: Mar 2001	posted 03-19-2001 01:32 AM I have obtained an open salt with matching spoon which look like sterling silver to me,but sure may be plate,...I unfortunately collect fine pottery not silver. I would like to find out about this mark if I could. The salt has a glass insert but it is not removeable. The same mark is on the salt and the spoon, and is "310MMET" It is very clear especially on the spoon.Thanks in advance for your assistance....Nana IP: Logged

You may need a magnifying glass to see any other marks. A photo of the marks would also be very helpful. IP: Logged

I am beginning to think maybe it is not even silver or plate, maybe pewter? It sure looks silver to me....have sent a few pictures, hope it helps. Nana IP: Logged
