Could someone please help evaluate this pewter stein
INOPERABLE LINK REMOVED
As far as I can tell the text on the bottom says:
Bahnbau
Wutzlhofen Falkenstein
1912/1913
No other markings found but it seems to be a commemorative stein for the railways completion.

The scene on the front is Margaretha playing the trumpet from the story of The Trumpeter of Sackingen. The pewter seems to be old (early 20th C.) but I have not been able to figure out the scratched base marks.

The trumpeter scenery seems to be correct, atleast what I’ve found on the frontal facing scenery, what I’ve found relating to the inscription is related to the railways construction, there is a local man that made this blog https://falkensteiner-bockerl.de/beschreibung-der-linienfuehrung-der-lokalbahn-wutzlhofen-falkenstein which seems to correlate this part of the railways completion.
However all this tells me is that this is an obscure memorablia for a celebration.
