nomad 11, are you referring to US silverware or abroad?
Either way, many great sites exist identifying "maker's marks".
Site's that sell replacement pieces are a good start.

That will take all your detecting time and every woman 50 plus looks for it. GL

Just google Sterling Hallmarks And then you will get what you are looking for, I assume you mean Hallmarks when you say stamping. There are numerous sites on both foreign and domestic hallmarks in both Sterling and Silverplate along with Makers marks, Patterns & etc. Good Luck!
