on the other note - can you advise how one can access the database, link to which you posted?

So much power and so few have access to it. It should stay that way, otherwise no one would ask questions here anymore.

The box looks dubious to me. i changed my mind, it looks OK. There is also pruzzian tax mark FW, used 1809-12. makers mark is IC/W = Johann Christoph Wittpahl years letter d = 1716 But all my Königsberg hallmarks from this time looks different to yours. But the box is church silver. It's a host box...

It might still me 19th century, but I hope someone recognizes the exact same "N" on another piece wich has a known date. Both Tardy and Rosenberg seem to show this specific "N" but ofcourse there are a lot of mistakes in these. This was a very big company. There are so many obje...

Hi Juke, perhaps German, Dresden, maker's mark ZS in monogram for Zacharias Schlosser der Jüngere, active around last quarter 17th century. His father was called Zacharias Schlosser der Ältere Peter.

MZ: (I.A/L) = Johann Adam Lauer (ref. [GNM] Nr. 505), working 1732/3-1779. *ca. 9.7.1704, Master 15.11,1732.

the marks looks different to my marks of Königsberg or Danzig

The box looks dubious to me.
But I am not sure.

this are well known pseudo marks
but I do not know the maker, town or country

this is the wrong forum for your question.
it is not silver but pewter

it is from Altenberg (saxony)

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altenberg_(Erzgebirge)

looks like a variation of the makers mark of Carl Wilhelm Schreck in Herrnhut (Herrnhuter Gemeinde)

August Hoeding or Heinrich Wilhelm Ed. Hoeding in Braunschweig (Lower Saxony)
ca. 1860

Otterndorf
Johann Wilhelm Gottburgsen (*1757 +1834)

this is very interesting. My guess was Belarus.
Let's look for further evidence that confirms your suspicions.

Yes, it is Bernhardt Friedrich Wilhelm Hunnius from Hildesheim.

Pseudomarks from this factory can be found very often. I have seen at least a hundred silver objects from this company. But I can't say which city or company they were made from. I think it is about from 1900.

Peter.

I think IGS
Johann Georg Stenglin I
N ca. 1802

ELI = Edlef Ludwig Jansen in Altona (refer Stierling p.84)
