Nice condition on the Geo 6pence!

Those rings are gilt copper-alloy & not silver, most are 19th C.

With cleaning, that countermark maybe visible on the neck

Nice KGIII silver! The brass ring may be a 1700's wedding ring, for I heard that in the 1700's some poor couples could not afford gold and that brass was commonly used.

Coinman123,

The faux hallmarks are not in the 18th C style, its much more like the late 19th-early 20th.

Oops, I did not pay attention to the hallmarks, now looking at them they look more like something I see on a 1910's spoon.
