Hi folks. I recently purchased a silver wrapped sterling crucifix that is marked "Tiffany" and sterling. It is not marked Tiffany & Co. the cross sits at 2" in height and 1 1/2 " in width. The weight is in excess of 1 1/2 oz.. The craftsmanship is impeccable but I can not find anything on this online or within Tiffany forums. Can you help me out? Thanks

Tiffany & Co Authenticity Tip by: Anonymous
Here's a neat little Tiffany & Co authenticity tip:
Poor fakes can be spotted by examining the "&" of Tiffany & Co."
If you write this symbol, it ends (or begins) in the middle. Tiffany goods have this ending Exactly in the middle vertically. Poor fakes don't. Check the Tiffany & Co website.
