Suspect hallmarks on shaker

Post by Stallard99 »

Found this listed for sale but the hallmarks don't make sense to me, date letter doesn't seem to relate to the rest of the marks, but as I'm fairly new to this I'd thought I'd get opinions.

Hi,

The hallmarks are fine for Britannia standard, London, 1915.

I cannot begin to speculate on why they have only used half of the mark.
