<p>[QUOTE="Bakersgma, post: 2736914, member: 59"]Since the numbers are the only marking that varies, I propose that the stamp is that of the "decorator" who painted on the gold embellishments. Each decorator was assigned a "piece mark" by which they got paid. There is no mark for the manufacturer of the "blank" and no name for the decoration company, so the most accurate thing you can say in your listing is that they were imported from Germany and let it go at that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
