London Proof house marking?

thanks i appreciate the responses. yeah it just looked odd to me but after i looked the london proof mark up that is for sure it.

Serious question; is there such a think as a Soviet proof mark?

For wartime 91/30's there are certainly pressure test proof marks but they are small circled letters.

Good luck with the photo's. Do you think, accepting it being the Soviet Union, it might not turn out to be a hammer & sickle? Sickles have a long curved blade, rather reminiscent of a crescent moon......

Sorry, just made the same error as Pete. Completely missed the fact that there'd been a load more posts after the one I responded to! I'll blame it on still being knackered after getting back off holiday late last night.... My apologies.
