Dutch silver mounted soldier button

[robtherib]

Can someone tell me something about the hall mark and maker/age of this silver button. Thanks in anticipation.

Hi,

Please see: http://www.925-1000.com/Fnetherlands_Date_Code.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Read: Hallmarking points D & E and F.
I believe I can see a makers’ mark but the photo is not clear enough to read the initials.
Please use a camera with macro function to enhance the maker’s mark and perhaps we can tell you more about its maker.

Hi,

Regarding maker’s mark could it read WS4 in a rectangle? If so it is for: Widow of Hendricus Antonius van der Sande or (Arnolda Daams) mark used 1878-1879, located in the Dutch city; Gestel

Thanks oel - tried to get a better image for you - also thank you for the link, which I had researched previously. The arrow image is the imprint on the button and what looks like is4.
