Has wear as shown. Scratches and some small marks. Hallmarked. The First mark is probably the makers mark that I just can't work out. 925 mark Next is the Rose of Sheffield ,then the Lion of England. The lowercase f is I believe the date code for 2005. Love this but I always get it caught on my clothing , so passing on to a new owner. I am not the original owner. Will be polished before shipping.
