A-C Birmingham Import 1988

Post by SilverYoungster »

Hello,

It has been a while since I posted on this forum. The first time I posted I fortunately had clearer photos.

I was looking into a silver bracelet I had lying around and became curious on the hallmark. It was tiny which made photographing it hard.
The pictures attached are pretty useless, it was much easier to see it than photograph it with a 25x loupe.

The things I am certain of are:
Imported in 1988 (Letter O)
Imported to Birmingham (Equalateral Triangle Symbol)
Is 925 silver (multiple 925 stamps)

The makers mark is A-C (I am 99% sure)

Like I said before, very hard to capture as this hallmark only measures about 1mm.

I simply find it very interesting that it is foreign and was Imported to this country 36 years ago.
The actual date of manufacture in the foreign country is of course unknown.
The bottom line is I am curious of what the A-C makers mark is, possible origin country and anything else.

Once again apologies for the poor quality images, I have described it as best as I can and am unable to take any better images.

Try holding a loupe against the camera lens.

Try.

Those were taken with a 25x loupe against the camera, its the only loupe I have and there's no hope of seeing the hallmark without some kind of magnification

Like I said, the photos are poor quality which is why I described the hallmark as well as I could. I can try to take the images again but I doubt they will be any better quality. As stated, a very tiny hallmark.
