Hoping to meet Cypher & Monogram aficionados.

[Newlyn Tinning]

Good day all from Cornwall, UK
Land of Poldark & Pasties!

I am a copper cookware tinner/restorer & I often come across items inscribed with Royal cyphers, monograms & occasionally coats of arms. Mainly of English & French origin.

I would love to know if there are others here with expertise in this subject as I am hoping to learn more.

Given time I hope I can return the favour & pass this knowledge on.

All the best, Steve

Ps. Theres a picture of a cypher on my avatar. Any ideas??
