wes williams Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 A while back someone enquired about the initials MCCB, but I haven't been able to relocate the thread. The attached item, from The London Gazette Feb 11th 1896, gives the answer. A Friendly Society was an early form of co-operative sickness benefit insurance, where members paid a few pence every week.
Takayuki YAGI Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 Maybe, this one ? Lyons Mllb, Does anyone know what this means? Poster said MLLB or MEEB, but letters except for first M were faint and not clear... -- Taka
wes williams Posted January 1, 2009 Author Posted January 1, 2009 Thanks Taka, It could be that one, and may be an answer to that query, but I think I vaguely remember it having more replies, with someone commenting that they were a member of the MCC (Middlesex Cricket Club). It could even have been on the old forums.

Bill McKim Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 Hi: I sent in the enquiry about the words "LYONS MLLB" or "MEEB" stamped in my Jones 30 button Anglo. I do not believe that there were any responses to that posting till now. It clearly either an MEEB or a double stamped MLLB. It is very unlikely that it could have been a MCCB. The date is interesting, though. It was made in 1995. Bill McKim
