1964 gold ring ALBION AC Co 18ct

This was my mother's engagement ring, she was married in 1966. It's a solitaire diamond.

One set of marks reads ALBION, followed by the mark AC Co inside a rectangle with the corners cut off.

The hallmark is a crown, followed by 18, then a blob, possibly a shield, then an italic 'i' (sorry, the photograph of this is not clear). From the hallmark information I've gleaned that it's 18ct gold, made in London in 1964.




However I've been unable to find anything about jewellery marked 'ALBION' that was made in England, and the only information relating to AC Co has been about silver. Can anyone tell me anything about this ring? It would be much appreciated.
