This British pewter tankard features a cast body with turned horizontal decorative bands. The vessel is stamped near the upper rim with official weights and measures verification marks, including 1 PINT to denote capacity. Further markings include a crown over the letters ER, the number 2, and the abbreviation LCC, representing the London County Council. These marks indicate verification during the early 20th century, likely during the reign of King Edward VII. The main body of the tankard exhibits numerous deeply incised, hand-scratched characters, appearing to be owner’s marks or graffiti.
