Unknown mark, help needed please

Post by RoyJ99 »

Just bought this small bowl and looking for information on the mark. 925 silver I know but it's the maker I'm after, it is possible that a letter has been rubbed away at the start of the mark.

thanks

Trev is right - it`s Greek MOSCHOS (ΜΟΣΧΟΣ cursive Mόσχος - family name derived from calf)
