Decoding Silver Markings: Understanding 925 & AFCZ

Question
What does the marking 925 AFCZ mean?

Answer
Hi Sabrina,

925 is the silver purity mark telling you that the piece contains 92.5% silver and 7.5% metal alloy.  In sterling silver, that metal alloy is copper.  The AFCZ is likely a makers mark.  The best place to search for silver hallmarks and makers marks is here:
