[QUOTE="Ownedbybear, post: 7322483, member: 29"]The crown is the gold standard, when the anchor or other assay town mark may or be not be present. Looking again at that very worn mark, I think it's a worn 18 mark. On gold, Sheffield used a rose rather than the crown and didn't hallmark gold till 1904. Just for clarity: I didn't explain it that well in my first reply! [ATTACH=full]422351[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]422352[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
