    Bought today

    The hockey stick is market 835, and has 2 other marks. Not sure what I'm seeing there.

    In the rectangle I was quite sure I had seen the Dutch ZI or ZII mark when I bought it, but now I'm not able to see anything there... (and I only saw the 835 when I got home and polished it)
    The pin is also marked:

    I thought it said METAL, but the T looks like an I, and it seems to have 2 Ls at the end (so, I'm reading MEIALL)

    The rose studs

    are marked 925, with another mark next to it. It's hard to see, but to me it looks like 'cek' in a triangle.

    The backs are also marked, but they're not identical and one is marked with 925 and the other with 835.

    The other studs aren't marked. Not sure if those are (partially) silver. Again, 2 different backs, and only one is marked with 935.

    I love the field hockey stick, my mother played for her school back in the late 1940s. :)

    Metall is a mark used on costume pieces. Just don't ask me which countries used it.

    Unfortunately stud backs are often lost and replaced. Most studs have these butterfly backs and they can also be interchanged by a careless owner. That means that you don't know if Teka made the rose studs, just that they made one of the butterfly backs.:(
    METALL, German. That means the hockey stick is .835 silver, but the pin is base metal. Not unusual at the time.
    They look silver. Probably German as well. Nice design, like knotted buttons. My brother has cuff links like that.

    The Teka mark is on the roses. :)

    Oh, good.:)
    Teka is a good brand, but these studs are very small, so I'm not sure the Teka mark affects the value much.

    No problem, given what I've paid for them :D
