To assay silver is to analyse it and confirm its purity. Pieces that have been analysed and tested receive an assay mark identifying where the test was carried out. Since the beginning of British Silver hallmarks London was the ultimate birthplace of the tradition of hallmarking. The term ‘hallmark’ originates in London in the 1400s, when craftsmen in the city brought their goods to Goldsmith’s Hall for assaying and marking. The original hallmark given was the King’s mark – a leopard’s head. The Goldsmith’s Company – the London assay office’s title – would take the mark for their own in 1544, and to this day it is acknowledged as the mark of the London assay office.
The fourth mark is the Date letter, this tells you when this piece was hallmarked. The date letter changes every year on January 1. The font, case, and shield shape around the letter change once the alphabet has been completed so each letter is unique to a specific year.
