Please help identify silver hallmark, on snuff box

Post by Gerox »

Hello All,
There is a nice snuff box.

I can't identify the silver hallmark, maker's mark.

For any help I would be very grateful. Thank you!

Hi Theoderich,
thank you for your quick reply. It is very appreciated.
I would be grateful if you could explain that to me.
I don´t recognize either the City mark of Kaunas (http://www.925-1000.com/Frussia_city_02.html) or maker's mark “NP”, who is this?
Can you name the manufacturer? What timing would that be?
If that's the Kaunas brand, was 11 Loth punched there, or should not have been punched in (72 zolotniki)?
I'm still in the dark, would be great if you could make light.
Best regards
Gerox
