the marks looks different to my marks of Königsberg or Danzig
The box looks dubious to me.
But I am not sure.

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.
The most reasonable explanation is that there was at least one other hallmark at that time, but it was obviously only used very rarely.
