    I am trying to work out this hallmark.
    The maker looks like J.T to me.
    I think it is Birmingham Sterling maybe but I am not certain.
    I have tried dozens of pics but can't seem to get any clearer...
    Can anyone confirm the Who What Where & When of this hallmark?

      The anchor and the lion passant indicate that it is Birmingham silver. Have a look at this website for more info https://www.925-1000.com/british_marks.html

      T.T is unknown Birmingham silversmith whose mark is seen on a cigarette case with date letter for 1919.
      Your date letter is A for 1925.
      Lion passant stands for sterling fineness /-025).

      A typo above, it should be (.925)

      Thanks Kimmik & Ivan.
      I figured it was Birmingham, it is more the maker I am trying to work out.
      The script looks like J.T to me. I had put TJ before (now corrected - I just can't type)
      Maybe it is T.T or J.J for that matter. I can't find the image.

      As I said, it is T dot T exactly of this form and font - an udenetified maker in Birmingham.
      See here and scroll down to TT - you will see exactly the same mark:
