Probably city issue from Philippi in Macedonia.
Wildwinds does not show that specific type though.

If you search acsearch.com for "Philippi Macedonia tripod" you might find something. This is similar but not exact.

Thank you guys! :)
Pishpash you are right! Only the last letter is the difference, but I think that is only the mintmark or something similar.
