    Hi Steve,
    I have just been made aware of another Britannia in the U.K. with the same ‘H.C’ stamp on the barrel.

    No idea what it means though!

    Cheers,
    Matt

    If there is more than one 'HC' about then perhaps a retailer's stamp?

    I would think a retailer stamp would be more prominent, this is very small. To me more likely an inspection mark?
