Lancashire Fusiliers Silver Hallmark Medallion, Dated 1931

Lancashire Fusiliers silver hallmark medallion, dated 1931, a finely produced interwar period piece associated with the historic British infantry regiment, the Lancashire Fusiliers. This medallion reflects regimental identity and tradition, likely intended for commemorative, presentation, or association use.

The design incorporates the regiment’s insignia in relief, featuring Lancashire Rose and “XX” for the 20th Regiment of Foot, its original title, as well as scrolls bearing the battle honours of the regiment, along with additional regimental titles or decorative elements. The use of silver, confirmed by hallmarks, indicates a higher-quality piece, with Birmingham assay marks providing the date of 1931 and the maker “BN”.

Dated 1931, this example falls within the interwar period, a time when regimental associations, reunions, and commemorative items were widely produced for serving soldiers and veterans alike. The Lancashire Fusiliers, with a distinguished service history including actions in the First World War, maintained a strong regimental identity reflected in such items.

Medallions of this type may have been issued to mark events, service milestones, or as presentation awards and are often valued for both their craftsmanship and historical associations. The presence of hallmarks enhances collectability, providing verifiable dating and silver content.

Manufactured in silver with detailed relief work, this medallion represents a quality example of British regimental memorabilia from the early 20th century. It is suitable for collectors of British militaria, regimental history, and silver items.
