does this look like sterling to you?

the small lid is stamped "sterling" but nothing on the tray, and i'm not sure if they really go together.

trying to make a deal online, but want to be sure

Hi,

The lid of the glass jar it is definitely sterling.

The tray, if has not hallmarks or stamps it is for sure not silver. Even if it is continental european silver, should have stamped some numbers, reflecting the purity of alloy (800, 830, 835, 900, 925). Only some hand made middle eastern objects can be silver, even are not hallmarked, but it is not this case.

So, my advice is to stay away.

Kindest regards,

Stefan.🤗

No mark, not silver. Even a silver item made up of two separate pieces should have two separate marks/ hallmarks if original/genuine

False alarm i think - he was in 529 races - so he was multiracial.

I believe he identified as 'manual-trans racial'

No automatics for our Stirling 👍

Yup! He was team mates with the Manuel (Fangio) too 😁

A brave man to drive with a German team (Mercedes) only 10 years after the war. The rest is history 🏆
