The reverse is engraved with the headers Date, Time, and Weight in a matching script, intended for further personalization. The interior frame bears a series of struck hallmarks including the maker’s mark LDW? in a rectangular shield, a 925 fineness mark, a Tudor rose for the Sheffield Assay Office, and an additional 925 mark on the opposing side.
