Title
Modern: Walking stick foil
Description
English: Rally ID: 48

Modern: An folded silver foil from a walking stick cane. Hallmarks consist of an Anchor (Birmingham), Lion (standard mark), and date mark 'b' in rounded square surround. These are consistent with a date of 1901. Two other marks are present, either belonging to the maker or the owner of the artefact. These marks are a lozenge surround, with the letter H over the letters HB. Below the lozenge are the initials L B.

As this artefact has been dated to 1901 using the hallmark, it is less than 300 years old, and does not come under the requirements of the Treasure Act (1996), and therefore, is not classified as Treasure.

Length: 21.8mm
Width: 14.8mm
Thickness: 0.92mm
