These are pseudo-hallmarks used by the firm of Ludwig Neresheimer & Co. of Hanau, Germany; Hanau manufacturers were noted for their historical reproduction silverware, complete with false, meaningless "antique" marks.

Neresheimer was founded in 1890 and still in business as late as 1970, but your chatelaine/purse certainly looks to be from the height of their productivity: first quarter, 20th century.

Hope this helps!
