The hallmark of a sideways anchor on a ring typically signifies that the piece is made of gold and was crafted in the United Kingdom, specifically in Birmingham. This symbol is part of the British hallmarking system, which ensures the quality and authenticity of precious metals. The sideways orientation may indicate a specific date or a maker's mark, helping to identify the jeweler or manufacturer.
