Masonic Spinning Ball FOB

This is a fantastic example of a very rare spinning Masonic ball fob dated to 1919.  Date letter “U”.  The registration mark reads 7910/ 0 Pat Ap.  Made in solid 9ct rose gold the fob is highly unusual in format being a fixed dome top engraved with Masonic symbols Suspended below sits another ball that rotates, also engraved with Masonic Symbols.

It was made by a Birmingham jewelers in England with the makers initials JJ,  Sadly little is known as to who this was, a maker now lost to history.  The weight of this fob is 5 grams.  Diameter approx. 20mm  The fob has now found its way on to the chain of a private collector of masonic fobs and sits along side some other very rare examples.
