Hello!

Could you please help identify this hallmarks? Website pages don't show these symbols.

The item is French-style pocket watch case from 1780-1800s.
It could be from other continental Europe country (not Britain), but I believe it is from France.
I bought this case in Norway, so maybe it is Scandinavian marks? I don't know..

Hi,
I've moved the post because they are definitely not French poincons. Had some trouble figuring out where to put your post, because they are unusual marks and I do not recognize them. They are most similar to American coin silver pseudomarks, but I thought I would give them wider exposure in this category - for a little while.
