One of the many varied British 'quality marks' for the early 1800s. Eagle being the symbol for the strength of the Gilt, a bit like the anchor was.

Thanks CRUSADER. I was just surprised that I was unable to find more information with such good back markings. Keep Swinging!!

We made millions of backmarks & only a small %age are on line & most of those because of your CW interest. The plain types are largely unresearched.
