Guest Reddles Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Hi, This is a puzzle , two small medals with chain, believed to be pocket watch fobs. Discovered in a relatives belongings ( we are a Stocksbridge/Wortley family historically). 1. Hallmarked silver about 1ins by 3/4 ins. "S & D FC" "1913" "1914" Gold coloured shield to centre. 2. Silver colour 3/4 ins. Possibly missing centre piece. "PFC 1915" Have been advised that these do not relate to football clubs but more likely local fund raising competitions for the war effort. Can anybody add to this, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tozzin Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 The F & S stand for Fattorini & Son and the Anchor is the Birmingham hall mark, at the top it does say Fattorini and it was made in their Bradford shop, unfortunately the engraved line has gone through the year letter. Incidentally, Fattorini`s made the original English F.A. Cup recently valued at over £1, 000,000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopman Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 I've one similar, again from Birmingham, with a date mark of 1908. I was told by my grandfather it was a football medal, but I can't give any details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnnB Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 I have a similar medallion awarded to John Hawley in 1910 when he played for Dunsworth Old United and they won Division 2 of the Norton & District Cricket League. I would love to see a picture of John and/or the team! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
