Help identifying silver mark on kindjal

motan · 5th October 2016, 12:29 PM

I bought this very small kinjal recently, somhow thinking it was Ottoman. It turned out to be Russian, but I don't know anything about age and origin. It is in rough shape, so not a very good peice, but I gave it for restoration anyway. It has a maker's mark, and three silve hallmarks. I know that the symbol next to the "84" should stand for a place (town) where it was made. Does anyone know this mark? Any thoughts about age? Thanks
