Help with antique British pewter tankard mark

<p>[QUOTE="James01, post: 9871911, member: 85022"]I have an antique British pewter tankard. It has writing hand etched onto the front that I cannot read. It looks like a name (first name William) followed by the name of a hotel. I think in the past some regular drinkers at a place used to have their own tankard behind the bar, and this might be the origin of this tankard. There is also what looks like an indistinct mark on the handle. But there is a fairly clear mark on the back of the tankard. The mark is a shield shape and the initials "SK". Hopefully this can be seen in the last image below. This mark does not seem to be one Oldcopper.org. Any help in identifying this mark would be much appreciated.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]495452[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Next image:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]495453[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Next image:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]495454[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Next image:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]495455[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
