Strange task 2

I have the strange task of judging the competence of someone who has collected some silver marks and cataloged them.
There are marks of Italian cities, but also marks that are attributed to European cities, and I have no authoritative texts on foreign silver, so I ask the experts for help.
This mark is listed as Amsterdam, but I've never seen it before. Can anyone give me a definite answer?

Thanks for attention

Hi Amena,

It appears to me some kind of flower (tulips) basket? Do not believe it to be for silver made in/or town mark Amsterdam. Perhaps seen on pewter made in Amsterdam, I do not know. I will ask my connections.

Best,

Peter.

Hi,
Winged angel running, facing left for Amsterdam pewter, but difficult to recognize here.
Regards

Thank you both for your reply.
The matter gets complicated and so I decided to publish three more posts on these hallmarks that seem to have been collected by someone who didn't know much about them.
Sorry to bother you.
