Antique Silver Hallmarks is published by OBZENA LLC, a Wyoming, USA limited liability company that builds AI image-recognition apps for antiques, coins and collectibles. OBZENA LLC also makes the Antique Identifier – Antiqly app, which reads hallmarks from a photo. This site recommends and links to that app, and you should read it knowing that.
Who writes our articles
Articles are published under one byline, Antique Silver Hallmarks Editorial. We do not use personal author profiles, and our articles do not describe first-hand appraisal work or personal test sessions.
How we use AI
Articles are drafted with the help of AI writing tools. The drafts are based on published reference material: museum collection records, assay office and hallmarking records, maker registries and trade directories, and realised auction results. Where a page relies on a specific source, it names it.
What the price ranges mean
Price ranges in our articles describe what comparable pieces have listed or sold for. They are not an appraisal of your piece. A certified appraisal requires a qualified appraiser who examines the object in person and takes professional responsibility for the figure.
Corrections
If a mark, date, attribution or price on this site is wrong, email antiqly@obzena.com with the page address and, if you have one, the source that shows the error. We correct confirmed errors.
Payments and advertising
We do not accept payment from other companies for coverage, rankings or links.
