Hi Larry,

Thank you. I know how it is it used, I just wanted to know a little bit about its origin.

Can tou help me with what it is worth or do you have anybody who deals in british militaria that you can recommend?

The silver hallmark indicates a date of 1903 - this would fit in with the earlier history which showed changes a few years later.

I would suggest that you contact one of the London Auction Houses for an indication of price. Sotheby's or Christie's would

be ideal and you can find them on-line. Mervyn
