I think this may be a German hallmark

I have another cup. Image

And here's the hallmark. Is the swan possibly a Zwickau mark? No idea about the maker's mark. Looks like a P with a crown.Image
All suggestions welcome.

They are Hanau pseudo marks

Scroll down to unattributed pseudo marks on Hanau style silver, you will see the mark you have (middle column, fourth down)
