It looks like a trumpet with a flag hanging from it,does anyone know what this hallmark means. Thanks.

I looked through a book on hallmarks which I have but I couldn't find any reference to a trumpet with flag. Can you give some more information about the other marks, the age of the item, the type of item, which country it might be from etc?
