Authenticating a 9ct Silver & Gold Bracelet: Markings Explained


Question
wife has grandmothers bracelet mark 9ct Sil.Lin, what is the mark

thanks

John

Answer
Hi John, Not familiar with the Sil.Lin marking. A guess I would have that the bracelet comprises some form of silver (sil) layering. The Lin might be the manufacturer. The 9ct. designates 9 ct. gold or .375/1000 parts pure. Is the bracelet gold in color? Do you have a picture of the item?
