A good guess would be phantasy marks trying to imitate old St Petersburg silver I would say, but ?

Hi
I can't tell about authenticity of these punches. But it is early Estonian punches. After separation from Russia after revolution. 1919-1924. EW - Eesti Wabariik

I like such authors of themes. Help me! Help me! You answer them, and in reply - silence.
Ort.S. You like them too, isn't it?

Yes Dad, I sure love them. "Thanks" wouldn't cost much.
Nonetheless, you are right Dad. It is an old first silver mark of Estonia from 1920-1924 before the lion passant mark. Not often seen and it has several variations. This is one, another is where EW is combined with fleur-de-lis. Nice doing Dad!

Inspired of Dads input I investigated some more and found that the maker AR is most likely August Reisman
