Title: Help with a hallmark . . .
Post by: Neil on April 16, 2014, 02:26:40 PM
Picked this cigar holder up last weekend and I am trying to decipher the hallmark. The crowned X is usual a UK pewter mark for quality, but I am struggling to identify the rest of it. Any help out there would be appreciated.

It was filthy when I happened upon it and so have made it a bit more presentable.

May well be up for sale as well if anyone wants to make an offer before it heads elsewhere.

Thanks for any help

Cheers
Neil

Yep, definitely pewter, probably 1980's
