It's a mark on silver that indicates the purity level of 813/1000 or 813 parts per 1000 of pure silver. It's a standard used in Finnish silver, with the H standing for Hopea, the Finnish word for silver. This level of purity is less than sterling but nonetheless indicates the object is silver through and through, as opposed to silver plated.
