text_original: The writer further tells us that 'since this series of marks was impressed only between 1696 and 1720 any piece of plate bearing them may be roughly said to belong to the Queen Anne period, since the expression is not necessarily limited strictly to the mere period during which Queen Anne reigned, but may be fairly taken to include a few years before and after. The most characteristic part of the Queen Anne mark is the date letter.
