How do I identify silversmith marks?
1 Answer
To identify silversmith marks, first try taking a close-up photograph of them. You can then use an online search engine to perform a reverse image search. If this doesn't lead to an identification, type a description of the marking into a search engine or look for a match on silversmith mark image repositories published by trusted online resources. Should you struggle to identify the markings on your own, consider using the services of a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer.
