Dougy Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 This is very possibly bronze quite heavy, the tip seems to be worn evenly, as in not broken. This is a small flobert type cap, I just wondered if the marking mean anything to anyone. Thanks, you could make an old chap in the local very happy, he found them while out with his metal detector. Im not the old chap either thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben0850 Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Not too sure but that mark looks very much like an ordnance survey mark that's used on trig points / bench marks?? Very interesting tho!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FalconFN Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Google 6mm blank and there are loads with that symbol. I'm sure you'll find more info if you can be bothered.

It wasn't hard to find with the words you originally posted... I must say I do appreciate your help.FalconFN. I had spent some time on google searching, but you were perhaps luckier than me. I were looking for the manufacturers name. I will look a little more tomorrow. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
