Thanks a bunch

I see that Wilhelm Weinranch used a heart outline but even worn doesn't look like WWH

Any possibility it's a variation?

Hello, believe that to be the incompletely struck mark of Weinranck and Schmidt, Hanau (W.S.H. inside a heart). Best wishes, Bahner

Thank you.

Looked them up and all I can find is they were a pretty well known Hanau firm in the late 19th century.
