Hi Zardos,

I read the date to be Birmingham 1895 (italic letter v). I first thought it was the letter b, but after comparing closely with the 1895 letter v, am reasonably sure it is v...but wait and see if others agree.

Cheers,
Steve

Agree with Steve - I was distracted by how it kind of looks like a "b", but the letter itself is quite distinctive in its way. 1895 it is.
