Swedish gold frame?

[jaume]

Hi,

These are the marks of a gold frame that houses a miniature portrait.

I think it must be Swedish. It only has three marks. One of the goldsmith, AN.
One of the purity 18K and the third must indicate its origin but I cannot identify it.
It should be early 19th century.

I ask for your help, once again.

Thanks in advance & kind regards.

Hi Jaume,

Just to kick the ball, the unclear mark, could it be a bust facing left? Perhaps a few more clear image can tell more?

Thanks Peter,

I am attaching two more images. I am not able to capture more precise images. The miniature it contains is painted in Sweden.
The goldsmith's mark and purity mark also show Swedish origin but the three crowns do not appear. My imagination sees a queen's bust, a monkey's head and other images...but the mark is not really clear.
Let's try again.

Kind regards-

The miniature portrait is signed (the danish Carl Viertel) and dated (1797)

You are probably right and it is a poorly hammered bust of a queen.
