Hi, I need help identifying this hallmark. The piece reads Plata .900 so it is probably coin silver but I cannot find info on this piece. Or at least I think that is what it says.
Thanks for the help

A clearer photo of what appears below “PLATA” would be a big help. In person, what does it look like, to you?
On the one hand, “plata” is Italian/Spanish for “silver,” and the 900 would seem to indicate the purity of the silver. On the other hand, objects like the one pictured are usually electroplate, not solid silver.
The item may also originate from Chile or Mexico.
