    How small is it, Elsa?

    It is approximately 10cm (length) x 2.5cm (height).

    Wow. That is very small in comparison to others I have seen. I would guess for bonbons or other small sweets. But members from the UK (I'm in the US) may know better.

    NICE to see clear marks, and @Bakersgma is always on top of them!!!! You can see some old VERY faint marks by the two red arrows that are too faint to bring up and out......

    I think I see a bit of a lion, a 'g' and an M, so possibly the same marks but older, smaller and not as well stamped.....but @Bakersgma could probably answer that better....I do better at 'finding' the stuff!!!!:rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Sorry, I do not see actual marks where the 2 red arrows are pointing.
