The maker's mark is crudely made, but the manufacturing standards for the piece are high. Hoping to learn the maker's name.

Thanks, Tom

Hi all - Tom, do You feel this could be a badly punched Deyhle mark ? Best wishes, Bahner

Hi Bahner,
No, I don't think so, the mark is very clearly punched. If it is a Deyhle mark, it was used after the diestamp itself had received much abuse. However, if it is a damaged stamp, perhaps it is the mark of Gebruder Kuhne?
I will take a better and larger photo of it, but cannot post it until next week.
Thanks for your thoughts.
Regards, Tom

Hi all, KÃ¼hn (by the way: it's KÃ¼hn, not KÃ¼hne) certainly is another possibility. It could also be GebrÃ¼der (Bros.) Levin from Brunswik (Braunschweig). They used the old city mark, which looks a lot like the one on Your piece. Best wishes, Bahner

Hi Bahner,
Here is a much cleaner image.

Hello, though the pic is much cleaner, my thoughts on it are not any clearer. Looks like the mark is meant to look that crudely. Can't say I have seen it before. I guess I have to pass this one for the time being. Sorry. Best wishes, Bahner
