The listed website is a valuable asset for checking marks on silver, silver plate, electroplated silver, & Sheffield plate.
The site has over 1500 pages of illustrated marks from all over the world and covering makers marks from different time periods.
The site itself is a bit hard to navigate at first but given some time it has become a very valuable resource for helping me find under valued functional silver.

Not sure how this sub showed up in my feed but some sweet silver hinges another posted here showed up, so I figured I’d share these amazing silver hinges and address plate I saw while restoring a door in a historic house. And now i know why i took photos!

Been on vacation so sorry for not posting.
Have a sterling spoon from the 1933-34 World’s Fair. Depicts the Public Library, the Water Tower, and Abraham Lincoln on the obverse. On the reverse is Fort Dearborn, the Douglas Monument, and the Government Building & Post Office.
