Hi Gary,

Welcome to the Forum.

An intresting set of marks. The cup was assayed at Birmingham in 1908. It was made by William Hair Haseler Ltd. It was later imported into Ireland in 1940.

William Rabone Haseler and his brother Frank Haseler, the sons of William Hair Haseler, were also directors of Liberty & Co. (Cymric) Ltd. They supplied Libertys with the Cymric range.
