[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 12439835, member: 2844"]On a Sami pendant (Lapland). The pendant is brushed gilded silver, making the marks too textured for me to make much sense of them. From left to right I see: - GD(?), this would be the maker's mark. - Swedish guarantee mark, trefoil with three crowns aka 'cat's paw'. - Double stamped mark. Town mark? - DG(?), no idea. The last in the row is usually the date mark, which is a letter followed by a number. If it is a number in this case, it looks like D6 instead of DG, which stands for 1882. No way this pendant is that old. Maybe better eyes than mine can make sense of it. Thank you for looking.:) [ATTACH=full]554620[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]554621[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]554622[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
