Hi,
Mark on the eight is fineness mark ("five-point star") for 915/1000 purity, used after 1934.
Mark on the left is maker`s mark, upside down; it`s actually 81 on top of V, the letter being the the Assay Office code for Valencia.
Number 81 is the maker's registration number, similar to Italian system.
Regards.
