nihontochicken Posts: 289 Registered: May 2003	posted 07-04-2003 01:02 AM I'm looking a what is stated to be a Dutch sterling piece with the following hallmarks: The seller indicates they represent Dutch sterling, made 1911, maker Van Kempen. Is this correct (most importantly, is this lion passant mark indeed the Dutch sterling mark for this period?)? Thanks in advance for any info!!! Rick IP: Logged

I have Wyler, but it's tough to plow through it to find a needle in a haystack for the continental marks. Thanks! Rick [This message has been edited by nihontochicken (edited 07-04-2003).] IP: Logged
