sazikov2000 Posts: 254 Registered: Jan 2005	posted 02-28-2005 08:50 AM I received a Russian silver beaker with the following marks: Silverstamp 84 Townmark Minsk Assaymaster W. K. for the year 1853, name unrecorded. Silversmith (Polish) Karol Filip Malcz (1797 -1867) So far everything is clear. What I do not understand: There is the townmark of Hapsal (Estonia), this type in use since 1824. I have visited the Historical Townmuseum in Warcaw, there are several pieces from K. F.Malcz, all with the anchormark of Hapsal. My question: why this extra mark, Estonia belonged to the Russian Imperium? Maybe someone can help me understand. Sazikov2000 IP: Logged
