Vintage English sterling silver ingot bars, commonly styled as pendants, are solid .925 silver cast pieces that gained popularity in the 1970s, often created to mark significant occasions such as the Silver Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II. Shaped as clean, rectangular bars, they are distinguished by complete British hallmarks—including the assay office stamp, date letter, and the lion passant denoting sterling quality. These ingots typically range in weight from approximately 15 grams to 50 grams or more, valued for their substantial feel and classic English character.

A phenomenal ingot bar pendant from the Vintage (ca1977) era! Crafted in sterling silver, this oblong pendant is adorned with engraved British hallmark. The first engraving is a maker's mark, which reads: "CMC". The ingot bar then features a leopard's head hallmark, which indicates that the piece originates from the London-based assay office. The pendant then features a lion hallmark, which confirms that the ingot bar is crafted in sterling silver. The pendant is completed by a "C" hallmark, and an engraving which depicts the side profile of Queen Elizabeth II. These final marks confirm that the ingot bar was created in the year 1977 to celebrate the Silver Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II. The backside of the pendant is smooth and simple, and the piece is completed by a complimentary sterling silver bail. A unique, celebratory piece, this ingot bar would make a lovely addition to any collection!
