Item description from seller

Hardback. Silver Marks to the World. Shelf wear and a couple of small tears to edge of D/J. Slight browning to spine of D/J. This handbook has been compiled to enable collectors and dealers to trace the hallmarks on silver objects from over 30 countries. Starting from the letters or symbols constituting the mark, the reader can quickly identify the country and town of origin, the date when the mark was used and often the purity of the silver. The book illustrates and explains nearly 200 marks arranged under letters in alphabetical order, numerals, human figures, mammals, birds, plants, heavenly bodies, etc., so that any of the marks can be easily found. The Introduction describes the various systems in force in each country since the first known records. There is also a Bibliography for each country, to guide the reader who needs more detailed or specialist information. With its mass of information in an easy-to-use arrangement, this handbook is a thoroughly practical guide for everyone who, for love of it or in the line of duty, comes into contact with the 'Queens of Metals'. Illustrated. Translated by Joy Moss-Kohoutova. 246 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).…
