<p>[QUOTE="KSW, post: 541964, member: 8708"]I got time to check before I left and definitely no markings on the coins. What your sharp eyes have spotted is some wear to the oxidisation(?).</p><p>I had a closer look at the rest of it under a loupe though and the clasp is interesting in that it is help in place by a pinch in the metal rather than a pin. Don’t know if that helps to date it at all?. More photos but my phone isn’t great close up. If you can imagine the metal being squeezed between thumb and finger into the coil of the pin- sorry best explanation I can give! No markings anywhere at all sadly.
