Hello, I would like someone to help identify these hallmarks for me, and if possible to advise me exactly this type of set is called. Using the instructions on the sites homepage, I am quite sure that the items are: Sterling, Sheffield, 1838-1890, and either specifically 1843 or 1867. The makers mark is RM over EH, and that I have not yet identified. The set is of 12 individual salt servers with spoons, it is in a leather, velvet and satin box in which there is a round sticker with the name Wordley & Co., Goldsmiths and Jewellers, Lord Street Liverpool. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Robert.

Almost spot on Gerryl but Martin Hall entered this particular mark in 1863 and it changed to Martin Hall Co Ltd in 1880 according to my references. Not that I am saying you are wrong but that our references may differ. Your reading of the year of the mark and the maker of the item are spot on though. Best wishes, Mike.
I would like to thank each of you for your help. You have indeed answered all of my questions. Sorry for the photo issue as I believe 1 of them was entered in too large a format and was only visible by clicking in the link.
