    Default Silver clay stamp

    I know if your piece is under the mimimum weight you do not have to Hallmark it . But if you want to identify you piece do you use a 925 stamp ? Or is PMC a higher silver content ?

    Plus what are the best Silversmith course's to go on .

    Just started out so be kind if this is a really stupid question .

    PMC & Art Clay silver both end up as Fine Silver which would be stamped 999.
    There's a few course suggestions on this thread page 2 & 3
    If you follow the links you'll find lots of info.
