demir Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Hello, A friend of mine used to have a 14 K pin made for the Turkish deputies. The pin is written in Latin script, instead of the old Arabic script, made for the Members of the Parliament. Since the Latin alphabet was adopted on 3.11.1928, it must have been produced after November 1928 and for the 3rd Parliament period (1927-31). It has the hallmark BB&C at the back. If this is the hallmark that belongs to the company named BB&Co, we can say that the firm was still in business during those years and could have supplied the War Medal pins or produced the Medal. Unfortunately, when I checked parliament archives, I could not find the document of the purchase or address of the company. The shape of the mark and the letters seem different, and "o" is missing from "Co" Can I have your opinions on this matter? Thanks Demir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackcowboyBS Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 I would doubt that this hall mark is the one that we use to know as B. B. & Co., but like Triadoro stated, better photo would be highly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graf Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 It does not look B.B.& Co. to me even with this blurred photo Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
