"R" is the signature of the maker. The "925" reflects the amount of silver it contains. Silver is a precious metal that is usually mixed with copper, for example. The silver is .925 in amount + .075 whatever the other metal is, like copper.
Anything with .925 parts silver & above is considered "sterling" silver.
There are European silver items that are marked "800". That just means that there is more of the other metal mixed in, "200". This is not sterling.
China is where it was made. Hope that helps, Cami.
I'm pretty sure that makers mark is from Ross Simons Jewelers!
it means that the ring/bracelet is gold plated sterling silver.
925 is found on silver jewelry, and it means 0.925 grams (of silver). The R is meaningless.
Its a makers mark..Ross Simons has alot of R stamped jewelry

Occasionally you will find older photo frames made of sterling silver. It is possible this frame is silver. The R could be a manufacturer's mark. I would bring it to a jeweler to see if it is silver. 925 usually means sterling, 92.5% pure.
The "R" is not meaningless. It is the makers mark or hallmark and it can mean a huge difference in value. Unfortunately, I need to know the same thing. minenis marked "Sterling .925 R" and know what everything but the R stands for. what is your piece of jewelry? Please let me know if you find out!

No such caliber in that Model Number. Also, the serial number does not conform to the S&W convention. You might have an H&R Model 925
