Nice Victorian Solid Silver Sovereign Case
by Cornelius Desormeaux Saunders & James Francis Hollings (Frank) Shepherd
Hallmarked Birmingham 1890
Lovely chased design front and back with prominent and elaborate monogram CR on the front
In fair condition. The two sides are not quite aligned, see photos. This means that the release button doesn’t open the case, it’s needs some encouragement to open by way of a finger nail. The top and bottom have some dents. The interior is in very good condition, the coin holder is in place and the spring is nice and strong.
Nice clear hallmarks and hallmarked in many places, the main hallmark is behind the lid.
It weighs approx 15.9g and is approx 3cm in diameter. It is approx 46mm high from base to top of loop
Really nice item
Low price due condition .
