Sterling London Ingot help please

Post by butterwings »

This is an ingot with the London and Sterling Hallmarks. Maker is: A & SJ. From perusing the thread the "C" is 1977. What is the meaning of the Queen's Head? The threads I read were 1800's time frames and that doesn't jive. Thank you for your help.

The queen's head was included on items with the date letter C for 1977 because it was the queen's 25th jubilee that year.
