Bahner his response was correct, hence my action to polish the makers mark Should not have underestimated this, and therefore, rightly so. Thanks Bahner for your comment.
Hi Krisztián, Great that you recognize it right away. I have seen this model cups more often in books or the internet, but if you need it, the ready-made knowledge suddenly disappears. It is indeed a copy of historism. Theodor Heiden has made good use of this This footed beaker (7cmx3.5x3) has no fl...
Hello, this certainly looks like one of the marks used by the Heiden workshop. The mark with the TH and the figure of the "Muenchner KIndl" is incompletely struck, but I am not aware of another Munich gold- and silversmith of that period with those or similiar initials. Regards, Bahner He...

It's a time capsule It is amazing that all this information from old books is now exactly in place. The approval marks were far too small as you normally expect. Therefore, I highly appreciate your response and confirmation.

And then now the check on the head of Minerva (symbols) right bottom where the six pointed star should stand, and the answer is correct. As far as good, now it would be nice if someone could confirm this, with the further...
