Dutch Silver Hallmark ? SS Nieuw Ship

I have a silver money clip from the SS Nieuw Amsterdam Cruise ship that launched in 1937 and operated with a pause in WWII and then finished in the 1970s. Any information about the hallmark pictured? I am unfamiliar with Dutch hallmarks...

Thank you very much for your help

Hi welcome to the forum not silver but silver plated; a non precious base metal with a coating or plating of silver. See electroplating:
