    Hi all,
    I was hoping somebody could identify the maker's mark on this copper dish. Or ashtray. I'm not entirely sure what it is. It measures 7"x7". Many thanks! copper ashtray 1.jpg copper ashtray 2.jpg copper ashtray 3.jpg

    and not a commercially made item with that mark on the underside - assuming it is a maker mark. IMHO

    Have a good look for a broad arrow on it. Front looks like a V for Victory emblem.

    well, Victory was in 1945...so either this guy was late to the party...or V stands for something else..;):hilarious:
