It has the 3 tower assay mark with a 13 underneath and a NP. Nielsen mark but I haven't been able to identify the other 2 marks or the pattern. One mark looks like "chf" and the other is "djr" or "dja". Any help with this will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Re: 1913 Nielsen pattern?
Good evening Sue,
Yes Trev is correct that you get a much better response when you embed your images. I am not familiar with patterns but lets see if I can assist you with the hallmarks. Starting from the top:
three tower Copenhagen mark 1913 that guarantees a silver purity minimum of 826/1000.
Markers mark: N.P. Nielsen
Danish assay masters mark CFH for Christian F Heise who held office from 1904-1932
What appears to be a retailers mark of T over DR.
I hope this helps.

Re: 1913 Nielsen pattern?
If you embed your images, someone might recognize the pattern. If not, as the company is still in business, you could try contacting them directly.
Good luck!
Good luck!
Re: 1913 Nielsen pattern?
Am too curious so I took the risk and took a look :=). The mark to the left is D, a hammer and A. It stands for "Dansk Arbeit" (Danish Produktion/Made in Denmark). Its meaning was to support domestic production i.e. "Buy Danish!" It was also used on exported goods to some extent. You will find it on object made in around the 30thies to about WW2.
