Question
VICTORIAN PLATE E.P COPPER B.M. MOUNTS 65 QUESTION WHAT IS IT? AND ANY OTHER INFORMATION ABOUR IT AS WE HAVE TRIED RESEARCHING THE ITEM BUT CAN NOT FIND ANY INFORMATION
-
EPBM = electro-plated Britannia metal. BM was a pewter alloy, and in this case it was cheaply silver plated (probably now rubbed off). Copper mounts speaks for itself. Cheap late 19th century product. 65 = pattern number. English. Little value, not collectable.
