    IMG_9623.jpeg IMG_9614.jpeg IMG_9613.jpeg Lovely antique 22 carat ring. Makers mark is A.P.A ( anyone know who that might be?) I believe the next mark is C, then a crown , then 22, then I can’t figure out what the last mark is? any help greatly appreciated .. I believe it to be English, but that last marking is confusing me.

    If it is indeed the London, and nobody knows the answer here, you could contact the Library and Archive team of the London Assay Office.
    For post-1975 marks, you need to send an e-mail, but the date letter seems to be for 1938, and in that case you need to use the form that pops up if you click on 'Trace a Historic Hallmark' on this page:

    Yes, it is, London 1938. I can't find a maker's mark A.P.A. It could also be a sponsor mark.

    Then it would sue a few people for sticking a finger in its hole without consent :D
