Re: Please help
Welcome to the forum. Not all coin silver was marked coin. I would take both pieces to be coin silver without hesitation.

Re: Mystery Hallmark
Welcome to the forum. I’d say it’s strictly the company’s choice. Whether the number is there or not is of no consequence to the consumer.

Large Austro-Hungarian Ladle
Looking for information about the marks on this ladle. The Diana head has an A to the right of it and a 3 under it. The maker’s mark, if that’s what it is, may be upside down. Also anything about the style will be appreciated. https://i.ibb.co/3TtTz9M/IMG-3406.jpg https://i.ibb.co/4SjpPHm/IMG-3418.j...

Re: Non-Meriden phoenix?
The trademark is crude and simplified as you say, and yet I believe it is still Meriden. Manufacturers did vary and simplify their marks as time went by.

Re: Souvenir Spoon Manufacturer P. E. K. & ? Question
Thank you buffalorobert. Now that you’ve given me the name, I have been able find out quite a bit about Peter E Kern. He seems to have been very enterprising and successful during his decade or so in Skagway.

Re: Hanoverian Spoons Identification
Thank you Phil. Turns out that just as I had feared, I had already asked this question and of course received the same answer. Maybe my eyes were better the first time because then I even recognized the letters of the maker’s mark.
Thanks again. They are beautiful little spoons.

I’ve kept looking at this mark until it was determined to be Tanner & Cooley of Utica, NY.
