HALL MARKS ON PLATE.
THE MARK FOR FOREIGN PLATE.
The assay mark under the before-mentioned Orders in Council
of 1904 and 1906 for foreign plate is for gold :
And for silver
(St. Andrew's Cross.)
The late Assay Master, ^Ir. Alexander Keir, kindly gave us
copies of the <strong>marks</strong> used at the Edinburgh Office, and Mr. L. D.
Corson, the joint Clerk of this Assay Office, has been good enough
to give us further particulars.
Our thanks are due here again to the representatives of the late
Mr. W. J. Cripps, C.B., for permitting us to include some authorities
given by the late Mr. J. H. Sanderson for the Tables of Edinburgh
hall <strong>marks</strong>, the property in which had passed to that gentleman.
