It reads 足银, a mark of silver content roughly like sterling silver, with the precise silver proportion varying over time and by locality.

 

Not to say this looks much like silver from the photo; the rough finish on the bottom isn't encouraging, either. And not to mention that the characters seem to be in modern simplified form as well as ordering.
