A maker's mark was compulsory and it really should be there with the other marks.
It could, of course, have been erased later, for some nefarious reason.

Default Maker marks

Now you mention it, there are two semi apertures each side of the quillon that I had noticed, inspected, but saw nothing. They may well have been the makers stamp but where and why have they gone?
