Hi Craig, I moved the drawing into your original post here. Thanks for that.
OK. You are reading the marks upside down. It isn't HM but WH - the marks are Chinese export marks. The maker's mark is:
Wang Hing & Co
Hong Kong
late 19th century /early 20th century

The following link provides examples of Wang Hing's Chinese export silverwork; he seemed to have a fondness for Chinese dragon designs.




Please let us know when you find more info about the Lake Erie shipwreck, hope this info helps with your shipwreck dates. This is intriguing!

best regards
Yvonne Hammouda-Eyre

Hi Craig -how very interesting. Could you please upload a photo of the actual marks in a follow-up submission. We will need to see a photo of the actual marks.

In the meantime, I think you will enjoy reading about the Titanic ship and Titanic memorabilia here.



Bet regards
