Silver mark

rosieglen — Sun, 14 Apr 2013 01:35:29 GMT

I have a set of what I think are egg spoons - very small and pointy.

Silver mark ?? is two dots and a crescent which I vaguely recall being somewhere in Europe.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Rosie,

A picture is worth a thousand words. Are the dots side by side or on top of each other or is the crown in between them etc etc etc.

I cant get a clear picture with my stupid camera - there is no crown - just the two dots with the crescent beneath - looks like a smiley face

Have just had another look and they are two little stars above a crescent

Does your camera have a flower icon in the settings anywhere? it's the one you want for close up stuff.

The other trick I used to do was use a scanner
