Georgian or Victorian Fiddle Ladle w/Unusual Marks

Post by WesternPA »

Hi,

This one has me stumped; it has unusual marks but appears to be solid silver, circa 1800-50, and seems too light at 7" and 49 grams to be CES or Caribbean. Hoping someone has come across similar marks before!

Thanks,
WesternPA

Thanks! Another mystery that perhaps will not be solved (sigh).

Charles Geddes - Halifax, Nova Scotia
Charles Genest - Quebec
Christopher D. Graham - Ottawa
Christian Grothe - Montreal
Caspar Frederic Grunewalt - Montreal
