I think 1806 Vienna mark is faked. It’s completely wrong. Besides, this is not the décor expected in neoclassical period. Not even sure if Hanau – poorly executed tankard.Cannot recognize other marks.Better pictures might help to identify the origin.

Hello!
I just wanted to write the same, like AG2012 did. I agree, it seems fake marks.
Best regards!

They look like Polish re-struck marks on old silver but do not take it for granted.Marks are badly distorted.
Unfortunately, we are seldom informed about the provenance of a particular piece.I remember I bought a silver bowl in Poland with re-struck marks beside ``13`` Loth and Düsseldorf maker.
