🗝♟🗝Sleek Vintage Taxco Pop Lock Sterling Silver Onyx Inlay Bracelet Total weight ~ 28 grams Height~ 8mmWidth ~ 3mmLength ~ 7 1/4”Markings : “MEXICO”“TN-28”“925”Verified Onyx… Onyx inlay is completely intact … no chips or dings.The first letter indicates location, and there are few in use, those most commonly seen are: T, M, G & CIn this example the T is for Taxco - others are M for Mexico City, G is probably Guadalajara and C most likely Cuernavaca.The second letter indicates the first initial of the last name of the silversmith, in our example it is N.The number indicates that he is the 28th smith, with a name beginning with N, to register a mark in his city's assay office.This example, TN-28, tells us that the item on which it is stamped, was made by a smith with surname initial N sometime after 1979 in the city of “T” Taxco. Generally that is all that can be derived from these marks, Unfortunately, there is no list that matches the letters and numbers to silversmith's names and there are probably less than 15 of these identified.
