As i stated in subject line i am looking for info on the hallmark that is on the front page of this site, It is the one in the bottom left of the screen.
it is one of the head and roman/ greek helmet. i have tried to copy and paste the photo but cannot and i cannot find any info on it at all. have just spent last 2 hours searching.

I have a silver napkin ring that has this but cannot get a picture of the hallmark

can someone please help
thanks in advance

Hi, welcome to the forums.
An image could do wonders but perhaps you mean the left looking Dutch Minerva head see:

If so you should find on your napkin ring; a lion mark, date letter and a maker’s mark.

If it is just one single mark, it could be your looking for a French head with helmet or Minerva see:

thank you for the information. yes it looks to be a french stamp like the link that you have so kindly posted for me. new to the silver collection and had never seen this stamp before. many others i asked didn't know either

question tho with the Minerva the picture talk about cartouch one has and the other doesn't can you clarify what they mean? as i said it only one single stamp on the napkin ring and pretty wore

thanks

Without cartouche means not within a frame or shield see:
