The Institute’s initial historical timeline concentrates primarily on the mid 19th century to date. World Hallmarks Volume 1 primary focus is on research. Education is presently provided through lectures, hands-on workshops, exhibits, and through HRI’s World Hallmark book series, which covers gold, silver, platinum, and palladium hallmarks of Europe.
