Hi,

No it has not been tested.

Hi,

Thanks for your thoughts, I discounted Cribbage as I have only played using 2 pegs and both players would have different colours, red and white for example.

Bridge? I can find nothing out about that being played using scoring pegs?

Hi all,

Does anyone know what these are?

I have several packs of 3's of them.

They measure 39mm in length and each one weighs 4g, carrying full English hallmarks.

Thanks in advance.

I had seen that but could find nothing to say it was indeed correct.

Hi everyone.

I wonder if anyone can identify this medal?





Thanks in advance

Hello all,

I wonder if anyone can say exactly what this is for?

It would appear to be a mount for something but what? there is no small lip on the base to house a glass liner etc.

Very much hunting themed with super detailing.

Hallmarked from London in 1885, the sponsors mark is Frederick ...

Hi Martin,

I have had it confirmed they are called Candle Douters (scissor candle extinguishers)

You were pretty much spot on.

Thanks for your suggestion, nothing can be ruled out.

Will see if we receive any other suggestion.

Hi all,

I wonder if anyone can give the definite name for these and their purpose.

Small compared to sugar nips, 82mm long.

By Hamilton & Inches and hallmarked from Edinburgh in 1898

The bowls are perfectly flat so not actual bowls.

Could they be ribbon pullers? I am just assuming they are not ...

Many thanks.

Helped a lot, so thanks again.

Thanks for your information.

A bit lost on the RH under a fish, the example you showed does not have that nor does this marrow scoop. A bit lost on that part?

I wonder if anyone can identify these marks on a marrow scoop.

Crown with letter V, RH, Crown over Lion Rampant, XXX, I, and a tiny mark featuring a swan.

RH, we think is Roelof Helweg Keur

Crown over lion rampant we know means a minimum silver content of .934

Any help would be appreciated and ...

Thanks Peter.

So just a miniature, I was thinking it maybe had a purpose but it is just merely decorative.

HI all,

would anyone know the purpose of this small basket?

To get a feel for it, it weighs 15g, and is approx 37mm tall.

Regards,
Colin
