Can someone tell me (preferably with pictures) how many different hallmarks Todd Lassen has used on his work?
I know his older work wasn't marked, but all his current custom and premium (not commercial) are. I'm mainly familiar with the one that just says "LASSEN" in quite small all-caps letters. What else is out there? Anyone know if the fakers have started faking that as well? |

I think he only has the one with the small 'LASSEN' on it. I have a cerberus set with the hallmark only on the outer shell.

Mine are not marked.
I would suggest PM the pics to Inigmntoya if you have them. |

The newer ones are, the older ones not, or so I'm told. I don't have older ones. When I'm back at home next week I could take a picture, if it would help this gentleman.

Ah yes, I've seen that before, it is a genuine lassen hallmark as well. Those where a lot bigger than the current ones.

Looks like a blurry little blob on my screen.

All the hallmarks on my Lassen gaffs have the small 'LASSEN' in all-caps letters... I have seen the LASSEN hallmark with the oval ring around it, I just can't recall where. I'm thinking I saw it on Otis his blog...

Customized greatly...

I just checked my most recent orders from Lassen (Morgan China bit and Cerberus) and the hallmark is also the very small "LASSEN" (all caps). Since I got these directly from Todd, I didn't pay much attention to the hallmark. These are fairly recent acquisitions so I think that's what Todd is currently using on his silver/custom gaffs. I know I have seen the circled hallmark before though, and I think it is on my Lassen commercial CSB. I'll check when I get home. Alan |

Blurry and not that big, but I can definitely see what it is: "LASSEN" in all upper case within an oval.
You guys have seen how tiny the current hallmark is; this one is no larger! Tough to get a clear image, I imagine. Thanks! Jim |

Mine say LASSEN in very small print. Custom made set of UK old Queen Vic penny expanded shell
and a set of his expanded china coins in copper, shell marked the same way. |

Picture is blurry but this looks like Todd's hallmark. I have a flipper with oval and LASSEN hallmark purchased directly from Todd years ago. These oval hallmarks were a lot more time consuming (only my assumption so you can call Todd directly to verify) so that is why now days you see just a "smaller" LASSEN stamp.
Also, Todd's commercial line is stamped with his commercial hallmark (at least all my sets directly purchased from him). Hope this helps. |

Did he ever use just an "L" as a hallmark?
