Hi fougasse1940.

I would have not have guessed a British maker normally their pins are so well hallmarked . I have a silver 25th Battalion Sweetheart pin that was made in the U.K. forget the maker at the moment but it has all the city, date and silver marks. I also have a sterling RCR officers collar made in 1913 marked the same. Most Canadian pieces are poorly marked if at all normally just the maker is shown or sometime it may have a sterling mark. It would appear he may have picked it up while he had served in the U.K. during WW1. This is great thank you for taking the time to look it up for me.

Thanks Again
Stephen
