[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 4479784, member: 2844"]Belfast is Northern Ireland, so UK.:) The ring could have Irish marks, but I don't see a harp mark, which in modern marks is almost a V shape. In 1972 Ireland joined the International Hallmarking Convention. I don't see the Convention mark, which is scales with the fineness. So if it is Irish, it would have to date from before 1972. The UK joined in 1976. Seeing the entire ring would also help.:)[/QUOTE]
