With such a pan this is a spice scale. The chart with the separate engraved value 15 grams is characteristic for letter scales. This makes this a multi purpose scale. Earlier a similar scale with a capacity of 500 grams was presented, see the large letter scale. The specimen presented here has a capacity of 250 grams. The chart has a stripe of measure per five grams. At the back of the black vertical standard of the frame is the firm logo of Ph.J. Maul. Below some more pictures of this letter scale.
