There are 4 marks, but they are really small. I somehow managed to take picture of it, but everything I can see is 925 under the scales on the largest hallmark,left of it is 925, but other 2 I do not have a clue. It must be UK, maybe Ireland because of Celtic pattern. Any clues?
Thanks
Alex

The scales I believe are an international common control mark for silver. It should show the standard of fineness, and it is currently in use. Beyond that I probably won't be much help. Clearer images might bring more and better responses.
