1947 Birmingham Stamped, 925 Silver Shield Fob With Hallmarked WA and Letter “W”

Product Code: SMS4185

Amongst the smallest hallmarked antiques commonly available are watch fob medals, a decorative item now scarcely remembered, even by few remaining wearers of pocket watches.
Fob medals, hung from the watch chain, were small badges of status allegiance or achievement-sometimes only recognizable to others of a group.
The variety of decoration in these medals was huge (mostly Classic or heraldic forms) but also a large number depicting sports, football especially. What they all seem to have in common is that they embodied memories or sentimental attachments.
The back are often engraved with dates, names and achievements-and equally often with (to us) cryptic letters and dates.
