Identification & Markings

• Origin: The left side of the base is explicitly stamped \"HECHO EN MEXICO\" (Made in Mexico) and \"STERLING\", which guarantees a silver purity of at least 92.5%.
• The Eagle Mark: Directly next to the text is an Eagle assay mark. The Mexican government implemented this system in 1948 to certify silver purity and track silversmiths or workshops. The faint number inside the eagle silhouette represents the specific maker or regional assay office.
• Maker\'s Mark: To the right of the eagle, there is an additional stylized artisan hallmark (a letter or symbol inside a house/shield frame shape) used to identify the specific design workshop.

Estimated Era

Because this piece uses the official Eagle assay stampsystem instead of the modern letter-dash-number registration system (e.g.,TF-22) introduced around 1980, it can be reliably dated to the mid-centuryperiod between 1948 and 1979.
