    Cynthia, I registered my hallmark two years ago.  The information
    Laura gave is basically correct, and the most important aspect
    is making sure that you do not infringe on someone else's mark. 
    I used to pass through the Washington, D.C. area frequently and
    just went into the Trademark office and pulled the hallmark tray
    for jewelry marks.  I found that there was a hallmark being used
    with the initials I use, but mine are in a monogram style which
    was different enough to be accepted.  The booklet you get from
    the hallmark registration people spells out the necessary steps
    quite well.  The process from start to finish took 20 months and
    you must submit information after eight years that the hallmark
    is still in use to assure its continuance.
