This was bought for me as a gift from someone in Latvia as a metal detector find, had a look through the database but can't find anything. Have spent nearly 2 days trying to research it, but I don't know exactly how to look.

Any help appreciated!

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

You are far more likely to get a response if you embed your images as very few people will click on links.

Hi,
Hallmarks of Ukraine after 1994.
Best regards

Yes it is Ukraine and the assay office mark Д to the left in the fineness mark indicates the town of Dnepropetrovsk. In the other, rather unclear mark, where the arrow is pointing right is the first character most likely a year figure (unclear), the second mark Д i.e. the town mark for the mentioned town and the two last characters that seem to be ПА or ПД, the maker's initials. Unfortunately I have no records of Ukrainian makers' marks. All in all a rather new product as artdeco already wrote.
