The Swan mark is a French import mark and has nothing to do with the other marks. Anyway, is the mark right of the fineness mark (84) supposed to show the Imperial Double-Headed Eagle (court supplier mark)?

Hi panatha -

in my opinion later struck fake marks. Khlebnikov`s workmaster knew how to place correct marks. Doublestruck? No way!

99% certainty is not good enough on a forum like that - as well as some gossip about the history/quote. We prefere facts.

Please look at the red arrows - the original maker was overstamped!
The cauliflower - like Court supplier´s eagle (later added) ist just a joke as well as the clumsy Khlebnikov punch.

Here an original punch:

Here some original literature:

Now compare!

Silver and leather notepad holder ?
Judging by engraved inscription it`s authentic Russian piece.
Can you show us the engraved text ?
