Maker identity is provisional. Matching names across source collections are not merged. Names that were catalog headings, lot titles, or assay/place indexes stay in the atlas only. Melt multiples are the interquartile spread of sold price divided by silver value at that lot’s sale date — not a valuation of your object, and the floor can sit below 1×. USD-per-troy-ounce equivalents use the July 2026 monthly silver reference: USD 54.17 per troy ounce of sterling. This dated reference is not a current silver quote.
