Help identifying hallmark on spoon - Denne (I think)

Post by cfauvel »

Continuing on my quest. Similar utensil (this time a spoon) as before, but different hallmark.

the marking V.D. is an ancestor I think...but I don't recall anyone with the last name that starts with D...so may actually be something that was bought by an ancestor that was already marked by an owner.

The mark is overstruck; it reads "Dehanne" above a rooster
