That's 1931/32. The later 1956 O has verticals which thicken in the middle:

William Hutton & Sons Ltd with a London 1900/01 hallmark.

This JB is Joseph Braham and I note that the date letter is R for 1892/93.

I think it's LTCo, but I don't know what company it might be.

Sheffield's town mark changed from crown to rose on 1st January 1975 when all four British Assay Offices synchronised their date letters starting with "A". London, Birmingham and Edinburgh retained the same town marks but Edinburgh replaced the thistle symbol for sterling with a lion rampa...

Impossible to date but a lot of sterling silver ingot pendants with feature hallmarks were produced around the time of the Silver Jubilee (1977).

I suspect it's gold-plated on a base metal. The marks are not a British gold mark and, as you point out, not a silver mark either.

Gold hallmarks don't follow exactly the same pattern as those for silver so it comes down to matching the letters exactly.

Phil

925A has never been a British silver designation. You may have been thinking of the use of A (and A1) on electroplate to denote a manufacturer's best quality.

Phil

My thoughts too. The shape of the shield in the armorial feels non-English to me.

It is most definitely Edinburgh and the date letter appears to be the Q of 1990. The sponsor's mark is MG which is the mark of Ortak Silvercraft of Kirkwall, Orkney, the initials being those of Malcolm Gray.

(does anyone know which King Street?) The 1884 Post Office London Directory gives his address as 9 King Street, St James, SW and his business as "dressing case manufacturer". Your 1839 start date seems right as he is not listed in the 1838 directory, but is in the 1839 directory at 1 St J...

In the 1851 census both John Harris and John Ivings are listed at 1 Richmond Buildings. Harris is the head of the household and is described as "Goldsmith (Journeyman)" and Ivings (aged 19) is a "Goldsmith's Apprentice". It would appear that the registration of Ivings must have b...

Definitely William Comyns & Sons. And I can confirm that it is 1910.

Phil

Well, it's definitely an import mark but your picture is too unclear to see the finer details. I assume it's London as it is with a London mark that I have seen this (unknown to me) AJ sponsor's mark and that the date letter is from the 1916-1935 cycle. It may be "n" for 1928 or "u&qu...
