SILVER BOX:3 3/4" long,1 1/4" wide,3/4"deep.The top has a hunting scene:3 men with spears,4dogs chasing a wild bore through the woods. A very ornate box with engraving all around.The marks are as follows:WJ, 800,(What looks like a crown),(What looks like a spread out V),GERMANY.What looks like someones initials is also on top in very flowing 3 letters.I can't make out the letters there all intertwined. Iwould like to know what the box was used for and how old it is.Any help appreciated.
Thankyou,Bob

Without a photo of the box and closeup photos of the marks there is very little that can be said.
It sounds as if the box is German 800/1000 solid silver.
It might be a pill or snuff box.

Anyone else?
