About Taxco stamping: Taxco jewelry often features a letter-and-number government registration system to help determine origin. Introduced in the late 1970s, the system consists of two letters followed by a number. The first letter identifies location (T for Taxco, M for Mexico City). The second letter typically denotes the artist's first or last initial. The number indicates the number of people registered with that letter combination. Example: TH-89 represents the 89th person to register the letter combination "TH" in Taxco. We were able to find several works with the TA-93 stamp, demonstrating a prolific artist.
