Hallmark Help

Post by Gezwoott »

Hi,

Can anyone be so kind as to help with this?
I believe it's German (from the first stamp Icon)
But can't find anything exactlike the middle hallmark?

Hi, welcome to the forum. Nice and clear mark of M. H. Wilkens & Söhne Bremen, crescent moon and crown (deformed) for Germany, 925/000 silver fineness.
See:

Hi, for the manufacturing date check your item for a Wilkens & Söhne Auftragsnummern or order number and compare with the Wilkens link I provided. The spindle press mark was introduced in 1886.
