    Hi everyone,
    I'm looking for someone that can identify the attached hallmarks. They are on a silver bangle but I can't find anything online for the hallmarks.
    I had someone on Facebook telling me that they thought it was Arabic hallmarks and I tried "just answers.co.uk" and the expert there said it wasn't Arabic as he speaks it. He thinks they might be ancient Egyptian hallmarks but he's really not sure.
    I would just like to know the heritage of the piece and if it's silver 800.
    All help will be much appreciated ☺️

    Welcome the the forum Scott:) Can you go back and click 'full image' for your photos, it makes them easier to see.
    I'm sure someone will be along soon that can help with the marks

    There is a resemblance to modern Egyptian marks, but I think it's one of the other countries that uses Eastern Arabic for numerals. My best guess is that it indicates 600 silver, but that's a real stretch.

    Could we see the whole bracelet, please, in case it offers clues to its origin.

    Although it is an unusual mark, I think it could be post-1916 Egyptian. Egypt is also known for making and exporting these thin bangles, often worn several at a time.
