Postby dimi66 » Sun Apr 02, 2017 3:35 pm

Thank you in advance

Hi,
The mark on the left (town mark) stands for Köln (Cologne), Germany.

Thank you AG2012,

You are absolutely right and I should have had a closer lock into R³. It's a mark somewhere between 2704 and 2705 applied in the 1. half of the 18th century.
The hallmark on the right is R³ 2764 with no maker's name given.

Thanks again with best regards
