This is the mark for Leon Rotsaert of Liege.

One of the inspector marks is star over R and that is Adolphe Delcommune who was an Inspector from 1952 to 1960.

I can not make that date stamp anything but a u and the date 1942.


Very well done!.

Leon or Leonard ( I have 2 versions of his 1st name ) Rotsaert 1st registered that mark in 1920. I don't have a lot of information on him. If some one has more, I hope they will contribute it. The date mark is most likely μ(mu)1955.
