Left to right:
13 ½ = fineness of 13 ½ lodd, or .844
CMF, in a lozenge = maker’s mark of Christian Friedrich Møller (1815-1885), master 1843
Rose = city mark of Trondheim, Norway

Hope this helps!

Ref: Thorvald Krohn-Hansen, Trondhjems Gullsmedkunst 1550-1850 (Oslo: Universitetsforlaget, 1963), p. 165, maker #31, also p. 200, mark #114.

Sorry for late answer.
I have looked in every Trondhjems-book that I have and I can not find anything to help you.
E G (C) D is quite unknown.
Sorry - regards Tosten
