Nice heirloom, but not terribly valuable. It would be nice to see the hallmarks but that won't make too much difference, unless from a really prestigious maker. This similar one (Birmingham 1895, with maker mark for Samuel M. Levi) sold in 2021 for £35 hammer price plus 20% buyer premium:

My grandfather from the early 1900s had this silver coin holder. Kind of neat, I think.
Here is a picture of the hallmarks: Top line has a figure of an anchor, a lion, and a 1. The bottom line says H&A. Is it harmful to polish it?
