Hi,

Not Dutch but Imperial Russian, will move you to the Russian section.

Yes it is Russian and made in Moscow 1747 by an unknown master НД (Latin ND) 1738-1747. The assayer is AK (?) most likely Anisim Grigorjev Kuzmin 1741~1751. The "animal" is Saint George riding a horse and slaughtering a dragon. It is Moscow's town crest.
