I honestly don't know the back of the virgin marry says sterling and the back of the cross says sterling Diroma. I hope that helps if you have anymore questions just ask.
I understand! I have the same problem sometimes. Does it actually say "sterling" or is it marked 925, was what I was interested in. I have gotten several items on this site that were marked 925 (supposed to be sterling) that actually were only silverplate, so I try to be careful. :)
I honestly am not sure I cam tell you it says sterling on the back of the virgin marry and on the cross it says sterling Diroma. That all it says I hope that helps if you have and more questions I will definitely try to answer you. Thank you for being interested.
