Adam Eve Pendant Lion + italic A + shield + ? 1700's?

[Fleury74]

I would appreciate any help on this - I've looked at all the British hallmarks and the closest I've come is the City of Chester 1726 or 1901 by the style of the italic A and shape of Lion in rectangle. The shield is hard to figure out - within looks almost like a cracked egg and then half the shell on the right.
Maybe the names and typography style on the pendant would help?
Thank you!

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

I think you will need to post a clearer close-up photo of the hallmarks to get a postive ID, from this distance it looks more like 1975, but a better photo will answer your question.

Is this photo clearer?
Thank you for letting me know!

Hi,

Yes, thats 1975, the first year that all British assay offices used the same date mark under the Hallmarking Act 1973.
