<p>[QUOTE="Mill Cove Treasures, post: 446666, member: 60"]Thank you all for taking a look. Interesting and confusing. The mark doesn't have a "scotched tape" look. If the mark is a fake, it really wouldn't help to determine actual age. I thought the gold designs were very "Art Nouveau" looking and guessed it was made between 1890 to 1915 . That would be after the McKinley Tariff act required that pieces be marked with country of origin. If it did not start out with a mark, it would be earlier than 1890. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/confused.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":confused:" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
