(Possibly?) French Sugar and Creamer; Unknown Marks

Post by UnicornBloodbath »

Hey there! So we got these in recently, and after exhausting my books on sterling markings and hallmarks, and spending perhaps an unnecessary amount of time trying to sift through the internet (this website included) to no avail, I have to ask for help.

I'm not even certain they're French, I just know that French Sterling has more animal-based markings than other places. I thought the "N" with the crown might be Sheffield England, but most of those are very specifically marked.

Anyone have any ideas?
