[QUOTE="bluumz, post: 11318436, member: 649"]To me, it looks like Capital Cash is/was the owner, not the appraiser. That letterhead indicates it was appraised through the Birmingham Assay Office, they offer valuation services and Mr O'Donnell is one of their valuers. What seems odd is that under the appraiser's name and date, Craig O'Donnell 24/07/2024, it states, "I have examined the articles scheduled above, on behalf of SafeGuard Quality Assurance... yada, yada..." yet according to [URL='https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/03916176']gov.uk[/URL] SafeGuard Quality Assurance was dissolved in January 2023.
