<p>[QUOTE="Jeff Drum, post: 2155102, member: 6444"]Thank you. I went back to try to take better pics of the markings. I tried the "cinnamon" trick. Actually I first tried the "cayenne pepper" trick, and have to recommend against anyone else trying that one. I grabbed the cayenne pepper since my wife is (an amazing cook) from New Orleans so that is much easier to find. Unfortunately it doesn't work well on pottery marks - and when you blow it off to get rid of it you'll probably end up breathing some of it in. Stick (sneeze) to cinnamon (sneeze).</p><p><br /></p><p>I think the impressed mark is "No."; please let me know if you see something else. I'm assuming this is either English or German (again, let me know if you think otherwise). Unless someone can recognize the distinctive looking "No." mark, I'm going to go with English since that makes sense for abbreviation of number. Any other thoughts?
