Hi welcome to the forum,

To help you out, I believe we could do with a bigger image.

This looks like it's going to be a Birmingham hallmark from one of the two date letter cycles between 1900 and 1949. Your BJG mark may turn out to be the EJG maker's mark of Ellis Jacob Greenberg, but without a clearer picture as Oel requests we cannot be sure.
