The hallmarks are quite clear on the inside cover.
Sterling Silver, Year letter "X", Birmingham Assay, L & Co Sponser.
So 1897, by Lucas & Co, Hylton Street, Birmingham, I believe.
What puzzles me is the actual coin holder itself (which can hold modern penny coins, nothing larger).
It is stamped Sterling Silver, with year letter "O" but nothing else.
I would guess that the coin holder is a later addition into the case.
Does anyone have any thoughts please, especially about the date and origin of the coin holder?
