I cannot identify the first two marks on this salt. The only thing I see is a sword. Any information about maker, date, or even to confirm it is Dutch would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Those are not Dutch hallmarks.

It's German, from Hanau, probably first quarter 19th century, The marks are pseudo-marks used by J. D. Schleissner Söhne; see Scheffler's Goldschmiede Hessens, marks 447, 448 & 455.
