[QUOTE="Bakersgma, post: 151908, member: 59"]Nice little thing, Shangas. I wonder how it got all the way to Australia. Could be as old as 1935, when the Preisner firm started out, but this form has been around forever - and Preisner continued in business until 1990. Does it have an inscription with that date? Just a tad more info to add to the thread, showing both of the marks they used, can be seen here - [URL]http://sterlingflatwarefashions.com/Silversmiths/SSP8.html[/URL] I can't imagine why someone thinks one like this should be worth $1200, unless owned by some extraordinarily famous and accompanied by ironclad provenance. ;)[/QUOTE]
