    I must say, I love my local thrift store. I keep finding hot deals on things, like this sterling silver dish hallmarked though not sure who the maker is.
    It is kind of strange to me that the markings are not in the center, they are off to the side on the ribbed area.

    Yea, this was only 50 cents, well 54 with taxes.

    Unsolved Mystery

    Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

      The next mystery is "Who are 'L Bros'"?
    10. vetraio50 vetraio50, 8 years ago
      There's an eagle's head mark on that dish on ebay .....
      better seen here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Antique-Sterling-Silver-L-Bros-Individual-Nut-Dish-Candy-Bowl-Vtg-Set-Brothers-/301520958820

      Maybe not an eagle but a bird ???

      This is yet another pic of the marks.

      The griffin / bird looks like it's inside a "C".

      Someone "found the mark in Rainwater's E of ASM (4th Ed) in the unascribed marks section."
