Maker of Another Dutch Silver Snuff Box?

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.
