Unidentified Pewter mark on Tankards

    Hello,

    I recently bought these two Tankards but I can't find the exact date/maker of them.

    They both have the same markings.

    1) A crowned flower (fon't know if this qualifies as a crowned rose) with the letter 'M' underneath the crown.

    2) A 3 towered castle. This reminds me of Edinburgh but it's not similar enough.

    3) A crowned Lion with the letter B underneath and the words 'Etain fin' on the side.
    This would indicade French/Suisse but the B reminds me of Belgium, where I bought these. Unless te B stands for a city?

    You can find the pictures here as they are too large to upload: https://imgur.com/a/V1tvuzf

    I would be most grateful for any help regarding these tankards.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi and welcome!

    Just wanted to mention that select a size for the email from your phone doesn't work from all phones.

    Photo size can be edited to 1 mb to upload here. Many people won't click on a link.

    JMHO. what you'd have to search is the mark in the middle. the other two - English rose and étain fin - don't make sense together on the same item.
    looks not very old from the color and surface. cerainly post-WW2.
