This one bears the French Minerve or Minerva hallmark, 2nd quality for. 800 silver content the tiny number "2" within the mark designates 80% pure and so just under the. 925 standard for sterling silver.

Good to very good condition. This one weighs 33 grams and is in fine condition as you can see from the images. Some surface scratches and/or scuffing though with some edge'nicks' so we've addressed that in the lower price. We'll also go over it with our wheel polisher before sending, that should bring it back to a higher luster with less visibility to the scuffing.

We're easy to deal with. Our fine inventory is very important.
