Taxco Mexico. ?

[baybgrlus]

Hello I received this in a seven dollar jewelry bag.  Could I get some information on it if anybody knows anything.  I have looked everywhere for the style of the brand or even where it’s from.  I can’t find the specific style of. Thank you for any tips

That's handsome, isn't it?    Not my area of expertise but understand the four letter + number system dates to post-1979.   So let's see...  first letter T is for Taxco.   Next letter is first initial of maker's name.  I can't read it; what do you think it is -- a "B"?   And the next two numbers are the maker's registration number under "B."  Can't read that either.  What do you think it is -- "23"?

I'll have a look in my Mexican Hallmarks Book later this evening to see if there is a named Silversmith associated with this Mark.

I found my Marks Book but now I am struggling with the Characters in the Mark.

The T is obvious. Maybe a 5 at the end. A straight on shot of the Mark might be helpful. Understanding the individual elements of the Mark would assist in the elimination process.

Thank you so much for all your assistance in getting back to me 😉

It looks like it says TB 125 or just TB 25

Thank you for the wonderful images.

Unfortunately the Mark TB-25 isn't on the list of ID'd Marks in my Book.

it looks like TB125 to me...

To the best of my knowledge these types of Marks always include a Dash. Here is an explanation of the nature of how these Marks were used.

I think there is a dash of some sort between TB and 25

If anything, what style would you call this ?

[old.crows.nest]

Listings use Panel or Panel and Link as keywords.

so basically the alphanumeric mark is meaningless...

[old.crows.nest]

That is how I read it too. Meaningless unless there is proven connection between a Mark and a known Silversmith.
