Egypt Silver (second attempt at post - so sorry all)

Hello, this is my first time here. I have an Egyptian coin silver bracelet and I can see 800 marked on each link, front and back. But there is one place that has 2 square markings (not 3). Does anyone know what the second mark is? It’s the swirly mark on the right (inside the blue circles area in the photo)?
Thanks for your help.
