Long Description
These are two old brass boxes that seem to be from before the industrial revolution. Each one has two stamps on the back that appear to be stamped very crudely and in different locations. The back of the bigger one has a 75 on the back of it and the other has 41. There appears to be quite a bit of age to each of one. I also did not notice any tool marks on either of the pieces. Are they brass with silver inlay? Any information would be great. Plan to add them to my collection just want to know as much as I can.
