Thank you for the answers.

If you look at the original post I made, I say it is S + caduceus + P or H or F

I could'nt find anything on Prudhomme ; do you have a picture of his hallmark ?

When was he active ?

Thanks in advance for your help

HEllo

Thank you ! I am not knowledgable enough to argue... I thought it had to be exactly the same mark, but as you say it might be a variation.

Best regards
