Hi,
This Vienna Radelpunze mark is FAKED.
Search for more marks; they often make already existing silver items more lucrative with applied faked marks (instead of making entirely new objects). If there are no marks, then they managed to find unmarked silver (or is it silver ?) to create a Biedermeier item.
After all, what is it ?
Anyway, the marks are FAKED, there is no doubt about it.
Regards

Agree with AG2012, it's definitely a fake hallmark.

This is how the original mark looks.
There is a lot of differences.
Best regards!

Yes, I know, I have a few items from this period and such a sign of silver, but thanks to your confirmation my words will be more credible.
