What is sheffield silver?

In common with many other countries, all valuable metals in the UK are assayed and stamped to verify their purity. There are several regional assay offices in the UK, each one having their own specific mark. The Sheffield assay office was opened in 1773 and has been in continuous operation since. The current assay mark is the Yorkshire Rose. Prior to 1977, it was a crown.


What does a lion passant and letter h on gold jewelry mean?

The lion passant is the British assay mark for sterling silver - if your item of jewellery is gold-coloured then it's probably gold-plated silver, or what's usually called "silver-gilt". The 'h' letter denotes the date that the item was assayed (which is also usually the date it was made). You'll need to check a list of hallmarks for the date as the letter is used either upper-case (H) or lower-case (h) for different years, and in the past different assay offices used different letters for each year. Hope that helps,

If the case is silver there will be a number on it "94.6". This identifies the case as "pure" silver. The manufacturer's mark should be with this number.

Does all silver have to have the 925 stamp on it to be genuine?

No, not all silver needs to have the 925 stamp to be genuine. Sterling silver is typically stamped with "925" to indicate that it is 92.5% pure silver, but there are other types of silver that may not have this specific stamp. It's always best to purchase silver from reputable sources to ensure its authenticity.
