    I'm digging the Italian and Chinese stuff, despite it being USA turkey day.

    Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

    100 gram with four hallmarks. I also believe there is a 100 gram bar with three hallmarks.

    Not sure what the hallmarks are. Anyone know?

    The first mark likely means that the bar was manufactured in the UK (looks alot like the lady in the wheelchair image holding a trident that you see on pence pieces). The Thistle means (at least it did in 1823) use of the Sterling Standard. The castle means that the bar was assayed in Edinburgh Assay Office. The D indicates the bar was made for the Detroit Tigers (not really). The D signifies the date of manufacture - I could not find this one.

    This is a useful website.
