Looks like hebrew, it' read from right to left ... but that's I can tell you.
There are people here who can read it so wait just a little bit longer.

maybe you could alter the title of the thread for a faster response like 'help with translation of hebrew'

Can you post a better, larger picture? Or, go to google translate and type in the characters to see what it says. I do that all the time with scripts and languages I can't read, including Hebrew

This is probably a Jewish name-stamp . What you see is mirror writing of Hebrew letters.
It's difficult to read the letters, but I think I see the names Haim, Zalman and Shlomo (Solomon).
Could you please send a clearer picture?

The presence of a balance scale makes me belive that it could be the stamp of a merchant.
