Jackson’s Hallmarks – Pocket Edition

The definitive pocket edition of English, Scottish and Irish silver and gold marks struck from 1300 to 2018. The English, Scottish and Irish system of hallmarking is the most comprehensive in the world with its annual cycle changes allowing easy and accurate dating of gold and silver wares. Watches with UK and Irish domestic or import hallmarks can be quickly dated using the tables which are divided into the various assay offices. To ascertain the correct date of a hallmarked object, first use the key to identify the assay office (named by city) which struck the hallmarks, then search for the date letter within the corresponding assay office’s table.

Jackson’s Hallmarks is edited by Ian Pickford and recognised within the industry as the leading reference work for UK and Irish hallmarks.
