Re: Help Me Identify 1908 or 1893 Victorian Bracelet
Hi Roelsama, Welcome to the Forum. This particular series of date letters used by the Birmingham Assay Office is often the cause of debate. As they wear and flatten over the years, they distort and the result is often differing opinions. Me, I would go for 1885, but....I wouldn't rule out 1893 eith...

Re: Help Me Identify 1908 or 1893 Victorian Bracelet
I got the answer about the lack of a duty mark on another post. However, I'm still curious to know if anyone can help me figure out the maker.

Re: 1882 bangles no duty marks
Trev, the information you posted has been helpful to me, as well. I have a similar bangle that seems to be from the year 1883, however the maker is still unknown to me. Thank you for posting the link to the other discussion! If you have a moment, please take a look at my post about my Victorian brac...

Help Me Identify 1908 or 1893 Victorian Bracelet
Hello! I have a lovely bangle bracelet with a questionable hallmark. It looks like it may be from the year 1908 since there is no sovereign head, but the letter "i" just seems too ornate to be from this year. It almost looks like a letter "t", which would mean it is from the year...
