The underside is marked with full English hallmarks: The lion passant for sterling silver, the leopard's head for London, the duty mark of King George IV's head, and the date letter H representing 1823. There is also a maker's mark for Robert Hennell II. This piece is in great overall condition. The crest is worn but the motto is still readable. There are no breaks and no repairs.
