Hi there, new to the site. Wondering if anyone can help find the value and maybe some history on an item. It is a small ring mail purse. I beleive it is made of silver. It was among my late grandfathers posessions. He was a canadian soldier in WWII. So thinking it possibly is from europe. Any help would be much appreciated
I certainly would be pleased to help but why not just post the items on antique-shop.com ?? We are one big family there and you could get a wider range of opinions !! Each one there has an area that is their main area of interest but most all ,,like me,, has many years in the antique world !! They would be pleased to help as well and we would love to have you as a member !! We do have fun there so expect a little banter occasionally !! I would be pleased to help with any description you may need if it is within my scope !! That is one thing that can make or break a sale !!
As far as I know this site has no PM system but antique-shop does !!
Yes as to the purse,, that is correct !! Several European countries used the 800 purity mark for sterling over the years !!
