Lots of info available. Wm Moore was a London gun-maker pre 1870's when he went in partnership with Grey. Many Moore shotguns are Belgium knockoffs. Belgium barrel proof marks will have a crown and elg or some form of elg. There is a website that shows proof-marks of the different countries. The Englishproof-mark will probably be a crown with crossed sceptres below and the Letters BPC arranged within the angles of the crossed sceptres. Proofing with this mark was done in Birmingham, circa 1867 to 1928. Barrels were not necessarily proofed in London, but this does indicate English manufacture. Generally, Wm Moore shotguns (really of London) seem to date from around 1860's. Before that time he worked for someone else.

The "90-HL" stamped marking on a ring typically indicates that the ring is made of 90% gold and is likely a form of gold alloy, where "HL" may refer to the manufacturer or specific alloy type. This marking suggests the ring has a high gold content, which is often associated with quality and value. Always verify with a jeweler to confirm the authenticity and specifics of the marking.
