This is my second call for help today... another snuff box made in The Netherlands. The top is marked with the Minerva head mark, there is what looks like a partial mark on the outside edge, and inside the base there is a maker's mark and lion passant guarantee mark.

Any idea who the maker was?

Hi,

It is the maker's mark of Brothers Moerkerk & Co. & Turnhout, Haarlem, 1919-1923. They had to essay in Amsterdam.
The dateletter is probably the K of 1920.
