Maker mark of R.A. Zutt.

Postby huszas76 » Sun Sep 27, 2015 12:04 pm

Dear Forum Readers!

A friend ask me to ask this question:

Richard Adolf Zutt [1887-1938] was a Swiss-born sculptor and copperplate-engraver.
He prepared both coins and plaquettes from precious metals, too, in Hungary during the 1910s. You will find his hall mark enclosed here. My question is what can be seen in the photo?

I hope, someone have an answer to this question.
Best regards!

Hi Krisztián,

I recognize some sort of octopus in the maker's mark, two tentacles are a little hidden.Could be symbolic for the artist multiple talents.
