Can anyone help with this please?<br><br>

Dear Sir/Madam,<br><br>
I wonder if anyone at The Ringing World could help with an unusual
enquiry?<br><br>
I am currently publishing a brass bell from a shipwreck found off the
coast of England that dates to the last quarter of the 17th century.
<br><br>
The object has a strange incised marking on the inside base of the
bell, as attached. It has been suggested that this might somehow be a
mark signifying the strike tone. Have you possibly ever seen anything
like this?<br><br>
Any light you may be able to shed on this matter would be very gratefully
received.<br><br>
Best wishes,<br><br>
Sean<br>
