Yes You are right - it is Fulda.

Sorry - my Mark was from Eutin - it could be Eutin (near by Kiel)
and was from Hans Heinrich Geertz

In Eutin was a Goldsmith Antony Behrens - but he worked only there from 1722 -28

Hello! The marks on my side are known.

The silver-collector Georg Schönfeld found them all and drew in the book "Das Buch der Eutiner Goldschmiede"
(This books to buy no more is, but it is the background of my homepage)

Other marks are not known, also not the mark of Antony Behrens.

Thank you for coming. Could the mark on the top from Eutin?

This is the townmark of the German town Herrnhut.

I think it is Herrnhut.

from G. Boettcher I got the message: in Bad Mergentheim ( Baden-Württemberg , Germany) was an unidentified maker, his mark was an AB in a rectangle - see Scheffler "an Main und Neckar" s. 43 Nr. 8
