Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 指當銀器樣本送檢時,其底部所產生的Z字型或彎曲溝紋。常見於歐陸或蘇格蘭,但英國則罕見。該標記通常類似字母N或Z,但並無特別含義。 
Dutch ..... Verwijst naar groeven in zigzag- of golfvorm aan de onderzijde van (Europees of Schots, maar zelden Engels) zilverwerk, die zijn aangebracht bij het nemen van metaalmonsters voor testdoeleinden. De tekens lijken vaak op de letter N of Z, maar aan de vorm kan geen betekenis worden ontleend.
