A BB mark

The friend I bought this from said the women was "gypsy like" so am not sure if this may be European.
I can research flatware marks but don't know how to do jewelry except read thru this forum. Thanks very much.

pictorial mark

This spoon is in rough shape with a strictly pictorial mark which I can't find anywhere. Has "Uncle Sol" on the back. Help please. Thanks for this site with such amazing people.

swiss spoon

Baby spoon unusual mark?

This seems to be a peculiar mark. Looks like an upside down crown intruding at an angle from the top with two spadeshaped(?) figures. Thank you.
