Certainly an odd find as Val says I too think it's 1977 but it's not your average medi bracelet as the blood group is the second most common so nothing important there, blood group bracelets were common(ish) in WWII more so with the American forces than here in the UK, it could be worth following your "over active imagination" and trying to find out if the pilot was ex military  Undecided

There were still a lot of Americans over here in the 80's.  Remember the headlines  'It's Official, UFO Lands in Suffolk'
Rendlesham Forest to be exact.  Right next door to an American Air Base.

One question though,  don't you think there would have been a name on it  or some form of I.D.

All very intriguing

The name would have been on the official dog tags but the blood group isn't always also covert ops personnel don't wear dog tags at all Undecided

It wouldn't have been standard issue so must have belonged to a private individual. Little chance of locating the owner I would think.
They became popular to wear just as jewellery so my guess is it's just another unfortunate loss. Go find another but mind you don't get washed away.

Hi Raistlain

Nice find and all I can find that is similar to the D & B S mark shown in this link.....

http://www.silvermakersmarks.co.uk/Makers/Birmingham-D.html

and the date seems similar to the 1077 shown in this link.....

http://www.silvercollection.it/englishsilverhallmarksBIR.html

Some good sites there for researching silver marks.

Told you that 2 days ago.  Always remember, 'The truth is out there'  (and usually on Google)

if you find a site that you think can be useful either 'bookmark' it or 'save to favourites'.  There's one for you, it's always useful................http://www.ukdfd.co.uk/ceejays_site/index.htm

There's plenty more, as you will find out as you do more research.

Very interesting - I was going to comment that A Rh+ wasn't rare - that's my blood group (only found out last year) - I was hoping for A Rh- as that's my old man's blood type.

For a while I was worried that when I drove my missus' car people would think I had O+ type blood as that is her type and it was on the key ring........
