KING GEORGE V AND H.M. QVEEN MARY 1911 (interesting they have used the letter V instead of U - wonder if this was a mis-strike?)
Big robust secure brass top ring to attach to a Gentleman's pocket watch chain.
Excellent clean and bright condition with just a little bit of extremely light overall wear / patina / tiny surface scratches - all commensurate with age.
