[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 291037, member: 2844"]Don't put it in the title, some people won't even look when it is not sterling. Chinese export silver is rarely sterling, of course, and .900 is a perfectly good fineness. Do put the 90 mark in the description, and add that it is the usual fineness for quality export silver. Once the 'sterling hunters' have seen them, they could be interested, and maybe learn more about that wonderful Chinese Export Silver. 1890-1900 would be my guess, but we'd have to know more about Luen Hing to be sure.[/QUOTE]
