    Found an old ashtray (or looks old). Does anyone recognize this symbol or know where to look for it? Thanks as always!

      What kind of metal do you think it is? Pewter? Silver? Do a magnet test too.
    3. nldionne nldionne, 12 years ago
      This is inside ashtray, think it is a symbol for organization or something. Ashtray is probably silver plate or domething cheap is pretty heavy. Tried magnet, does not stick to it. No mark on bottom. I don't do metal stuff just was interested in the meaning. What does it mean if magnet doesn't stick?

      That T in the GT logo or CT suggests Tin to me.
      A modern American pewter maker?

      Thanks for the info Vetraio. I wish I didn't see this, I get curious about things like this and it drives me nuts until I figure it out. Thanks again!

      Lol..... I just posted my ashtray. I know I'm a copy cat ! -Mike-

      I haven't been getting emails from comments through the night so I am sorry not to thank you Eye. Hope your back is okay. Looking forward to seeing your ashtray. I have a few vintage pottery ones I might post.

      Thanks Neilv and Moonstone.

      I would look hard at the Diamond Tool & Die company and see if this mark shows up somewhere in it's history. Maybe ask some antique tool collector sites.
    15. nldionne nldionne, 12 years ago
      Thanks Boots! Not too worried know no value but love a mystery. Usually Eye tells me what it is:)
    16. nldionne nldionne, 12 years ago
      There are a bunch of Diamond's. will look into them. I am on a mow break:)
    17. nldionne nldionne, 12 years ago
      Hi Eye. This post is really strange. I have comments from 21 hours ago befor comments from 19 hours ago. System must have had a hiccup!
      #16 is 23 hours ago and #25 is 19 hours ago. Is your back any better? It's hell to get old:)
    18. nldionne nldionne, 12 years ago
      Thanks Walksoftly

      Thanks for starting my day with laugh. 29 now huh! I have been 29 for a few years now;)
    20. nldionne nldionne, 12 years ago
      Yes it is my friend.
    21. nldionne nldionne, 12 years ago
      I guess that's better than looking in the mirror and seeing your Mother!
    22. nldionne nldionne, 12 years ago
      Nope, yanked it off last night:). Nothing there
    23. nldionne nldionne, 12 years ago
