Makers mark on Alpacca Dessert Cups

[eglass]

Hi! I have a set of 6 of these little 3" x 2.5" tall dessert or sherbets.

Thanks to this forum, I know that "Alpacca" means that special alloy of zinc, copper and nickel - but also that LOTS of different companies the world over made this type of metal.

Does anyone recognize the mark next to the word "ALPACCA" on the bottom of these?
