I found this headstamp in a park that dates back to the mid-1800s; I emailed the company in London several months ago but they haven't replied.

Any ideas as to a manufacturing date range? London headstamp.jpg

It's one of my favorites for shot shell headstamps. On some companies they narrow the dates down pretty good.
One looks real similar to yours on page 2. Unfortunately it only gives a date range of 1824-present.
Maybe the company will email you back.
