From ozfred:

quote:
I seek information/confirmation on a lidded container, 3 5/8" x 1 5/8", weighing 158.5g with a Norwegian 24 Skilling coin, 1746-1763, centered on the lid.

A Danish 2 Skilling, 1702 and 7 other copper coins from the reign of the Norwegian King Frederik are set around the side.

On the base is an assay test 'www..', two "N" and "P" (?) but no town mark. The "N" is to similar to the mark of the Danish Assay Master, C. Naebo, 1823-1827 and the "P" to that of the Assay Master F. Fabricius, 1787-1823.

Might this be a tobacco box from Copenhagen, dating from the 1820"s, assayed by Fabricius and re-assay by Naebo?

My thanks, in anticipation,
ozfred.
