Anyone know French mint marks?

France 1855 2 Centimes.
But what's the mint mark? Is it M or NM, maybe a W something?image
Thanks,
Glenn

  • That looks like MA, for Marseilles. The privy mark to the right of the date would either be a dog's head or an anchor, with the latter being worth more. Mintage for both totaled 2.438 million.

    I wanted to say MA but I can't reconcile what I see with what it's supposed to look like.image

    Has an anchor to the left & what looks like a crown to the right.
    I think I asked this before, but forgot to write it down.
