Hi Matt,
It may well be a brilliant find. James Hamilton's recorded assays, from what I can find, are nearly all gold, and I find only 8oz. of silver assayed under his name, all in one quarter of 1825. That said, the Newcastle records do have holes in them and can be very confusing, but whatever the detail, this has to be a very, very rare item.
