Does anyone recognize this mark. Nothing else just sterling and the mark.
Thanks if you can help.

Oh so
Mossy one...
Maybe S-K can help. Until then, Levine's #4...pg.96...Cross and Crown (Is that what it is?)...Philip
Brown.
Hey, how poetic...Cross and Crown...Philip Brown.
Oh, 1671-

P. S.
OOOOOPS...I see you plainly stated what it was. Sigh!

Sorry silver is not my area. I have a guide to British marks but that is not one. Hopefully, someone else will be able to help.

Hello Folks,
I am not postive, but I believe that is a Knights Templar mark. Or at least maybe related to them.
I have one of their old swords around here someplace with that symbol on it.
What is it on? Could be later military or Christian order also.

As far as the meaning of the marking, 9ball may be on to something...
