Hi welcome to the forum. The Jason head with number 2 is indeed for Belgium, silver 2nd standard mark 833 fineness, used 1832-1869 . This standard mark punched in combination with office mark, often seen with the assayer' s mark and followed by a maker's mark. Perhaps those last two or three marks have been rubbed or unclear.

Please show us a clear enhanced image of the T mark and or all marks.
If it looks like T in square it could be the maker’s mark for; Godfried Thielen, silversmith with a workshop in Kleine-Brogel, Peer in Belgium, active 1843-?
