I think that's a makers mark, not a hallmark which means they are plate, not silver

Thanks itch ought they were plate but would still like to know what the initials stand for.

Could what you have be of French origin? The "AF" meaning argent feminine: silver plated.

It appears that the poster who wanted to know about "A.W.M.S A.F" is A.W.O.L. or M.I.A.:)
