Anyone know anything about silver marks?

Hmmm, can anyone identify the marks on this pitcher? I've had a hunt around the interwebby thing with no luck. Of course, it would depend on thickness, but can anyone estimate what weight it might be? I'm told it's 19cms tall and 13cms wide. (Seller estimates 300 - 500g (!!) which I rather doubt - maybe around 100g at most?)

Well, whatever it is - and it is .925 - I just bought it for $66!! Can't wait to weigh it. It should be at least 100g...shouldn't it?:/
 
The pitcher arrived today! :) It is 251grams, .925 so the spot's about $215-ish. Very pleased to get it for $66. As an added bonus, I love the look of it. Happy days. (Still can't read the maker's mark.)
 
Wow, you could leave it next to your bed at night, if someone tries to steal your stack you could pitch you pitcher at them and dispatch your despotic defalcator.
 
last year i got my best find.....925 stamped jug that weighs 1kg........bought it for 40 bucks from st vinnies....was black with tarnish and cant believe no one ever bothered to turn it over and look for a mark....

well done cuba for taking a punt...
 
Interesting? I reckon that massive jug designed especially for the royal family trip from India to UK wasn't epns:) but was forged from the blood sweat and tears from his slave servants. What I did find interesting is that most silver in India at the moment was brought in their by trade and not mined
