Cigarette case maybe Austrian

Post by juantotree »

Hi

This cigarette case is identically marked on both interior sides with the marks in the 3rd image and on the thumbpiece with AA as shown in the 2nd image. I think it may be Austrian but am unsure, I would welcome the opinion of other members who may be able to point me in the right direction.

Many Thanks
Martin

Another image of the mark as there was a blemish on my camera lens affecting the image.

Hi,
For Austrian marks see here.

Vienna, standard .900. Letter ^^A^^ was used as secondary mark on finials, knobs etc.
Maker^s mark difficult to decipher.

Yes, I think it is Austria. 2 means 900/1000 silver and A means Vienna, but I don't know the maker.

Thanks guys, the makers mark doesn't really look like anything that I can distinguish.
