Edward III extended marks to master goldsmiths in 1303, Henry V regulated barrel marks, and a 1420 alg2 by London Coopers' company persists.

Tungsten a valuable metal with diverse uses
Tungsten or wolfram was isolated by the dEl hujarts in 1783 after Scheele isolated tungstic acid in 1771. It occurs in wolframite and scheelite, rarely native, and is usually found with tin ores. It increases steel hardness and tenacity, enabling hard tools. Coolidge made tungsten malleable and ductile, and tungsten wire is used for incandescent lamp filaments.
