Thank you so much for the information. Your description is very similar but I am still not sure about the middle symbol. It just does not look like a horse with a rider but does have a very similar shape.
I tried to post better photos but I am very new to this. The bracelet was my Mother's and a treasure to me.

Hi,
It is also written here in this link that the two Russian letters there at the en mean- "Imported goods"
http://www.925-1000.com/Frussia.htmlI am not sure which town the middle mark there stands for, maybe you will manage to fin it in the link I posted above,
or maybe also in this one-
http://www.silvercollection.it/quaterru ... marks.htmlBy the way I am not an expert on the subject so I suggest you check it further with more knowledgeable people on the subject.
Still hope I maybe managed help a little, and lots of luck with your search.
