Detailed decoding of the four hallmarks from left to right:
• Hallmark of the Silversmith (M&W with a punch): It is the official assay mark of the renowned producer Mappin & Webb. The punch symbol (like in playing cards) beneath the initials is their registered trademark.
• City Mark (Anchor): The anchor symbol indicates that the item has been officially tested and certified at the Birmingham Assay Office.
