Hi,
Austria-Hungary 1872 to 1922. It has the 14K Gold Standard Fox Head Hallmark (irregular hexagon) with the fox head facing to the left.
There should be a letter to the left of it, and a number 4 on the right of it. The letter stands for the Assay Office (Vienna was A).
The number 4 stands for the fourth standard for gold in Austria which is 14K Gold.
Regards

Hello!
Unfortunatly AG2012 wrong in this case.
This wolf mark was valid hungarian 14k hallmark between 1937-1966.
BTW, I don't know the maker either.
Best regards!
