DESCRIPTION

Good Georgian silver ring end meat skewer with an unusual crest below a short motto, now too rubbed for me to read.

SILVERSMITH

Peter, Ann and William Bateman overstruck by George Gray. It is common to find George Gray's mark over Hester's and then Peter & Ann's mark but most unusual to find it on the mark of this partnership.
