Re: Dutch silver button
The silver and gold guild of Schoonhoven made a lot of small traditional Zeeland silver for the Zeeland market.
The button has a impression of a coin side, the so called Ducaton or silver Rider – Res Parvæ – Crescunt 'Together the Small will Grow'
On this button we see the town mark of Schoonhoven ...

Re: Dutch pseudo marks?
Hi idarf,
No, in my opinion they are not Dutch pseudo marks. I think perhaps Swiss. It looks good quality, the pseudo marks may have been used by Pochon Frères & Co, for their silverware that went abroad but I have no proof of that. Perhaps not a bad idea to have the scale tested for silver content ...

Re: Silver spoon, maker?
Certainly not easy to find, I initially thought of Baltic silver but in the book Baltic silver by Carl Ehrnrooth the Hauffe mark is not shown or mentioned in the index.

To me it appears the marks pretend to look like a boars or dogs head facing left and a eagle head erased facing right. Have you tested the gold content? Perhaps ...
