    Default New years day and my favorite place was open

    One of the places I like to visit is Dagfield Antiques in Nantwich Cheshire and it's is a few hours of scannig every item in every warehouse. I love it. I picked up a sterling silver money clip and a few cuff links as I like them. In fact I have more incoming from fleabay soon.

    Can someone tell me what the last hall mark letter may be as it is slightly faded. I think it may be from 2005 by Harrison Brothers & Howson Ltd.

    On a side note, if you are visiting Cheshire then the best places to visit are Dagfields in Nantwich and Bygone Times in Eccleston. I would say Lady Hayes in Frodsham, but they seem to have got rid of alot of their units in favour for "Glamping" chalets. Bob Carolgees of "Spit the dog" fame has a Yankee Candel unit there aswell.

    Its a crossed x, which is 1997.

    I spent the day at an antique fair today and picked up a couple of items... one was a 1910 silver box with two complete sets of miniature playing cards in it for playing patience. I love sifting through the fairs looking at anything small and silver, especially if it is old.

    Thanks for the correction.
    I paid £15 for it. Bit too much or about right?

    I guess fair enough...£15 doesn't go far in the world any longer ^^

    Silver + consumable materials + hourly rate + hall-marking + postage ... £15 ? Surely a win!
