In this Forum we discuss the silver of the United Kingdom, as well as British Colonial silver and Old Sheffield Plate. Past British - Irish Sterling topics/threads worth a look. |

Yes. On English silver bearing true hallmarks, it does, but not all silver bearing a lion passant is English, and not all is Sterling. It may also be absent from Sterling that is not English. [This message has been edited by swarter (edited 03-18-2004).] IP: Logged |
