U.K. gold hallmarking dropped to the lowest since at least 2007 as higher local prices helped curb demand.
The country’s four assay offices hallmarked 246,993 items in February, down 14 percent from a year earlier, according to data from the Birmingham office. That’s the lowest on record for data going back to January 2008, when monthly figures were first collated.
