I know what I'm talking about, my family has been in the antique & appraisal business since 1959, my own
personal involvement since the early 1960's. I suggest you do a Google search for "hallmarked 1947".
prefixed by London, Birmingham, Sheffield etc.... and you'll find all kinds of sterling produced during that
year, for that matter 1939-45 as well.
And my family since around 1918, though I am only an interested dabbler...
While a number of different items were produced, the numbers
manufactured of each type of item were low, and hand-crafted ones even
lower.
Much of the stuff produced was for export to help pay for the war effort.
The point made that silver production was "rare" directly after the war, which is simply not correct.
"Stuff made for Export" got priority after the war, and as I pointed out silver production for even mundane
articles went on throughout the war, as can easily be seen by a simple Google search.
