A Sterling Silver Fob Medal - Vacant Shield - Birmingham 1934
Here is a classic British Sterling Silver watch fob medallion. This fancy fob has scrolling and a Shield shaped cartouche and decorated top with dots and dashes and other work to the top. The fob bears the silver hallmark for Birmingham 1934 as well as the maker's mark 'W A' for William Adams, a prolific Birmingham silversmith based in Barr Street, Birmingham, England at that time. These silver medal-like fobs were usually worn on watch chains and were also used as awards for sporting and academic achievement. They are often found with engraving which tells more about how they were used and why they were presented. this nice old silver fob medal has a vacant cartouche so is suitable for you to engrave your initials or other details if wished. The fob is in very good order with just the surface scratches you would expect on a piece of jewellery of this age. This silver fob measures 3.5 cms by 2.5 cms approx at its widest points and it also has a silver bolt ring to attach it to a watch chain.
