[QUOTE="JewelryPicker, post: 4600172, member: 20513"]I don’t believe it is Mexican or Native American based on the mark that I think resembles an Assay or Standard mark. Good point that the style was popular worldwide, here in the States that style is most frequently seen in Mexican & NA pieces from that era. The oval around the 925 is not in question as it has been used worldwide for many years The “AH” in half cartouche is a maker’s mark. The mark in question has 925 above the image which leads me to believe it is a traditional standard mark. I guess what’s most aggravating is that I recognize it as a puzzle that I have solved before. What benefit is getting older if you can’t remember all the knowledge that you’ve been stockpiling over the years? :)[/QUOTE]
