Maybe Batumi. But, i think, it 's amateur activity.
This kind of "84" did not exist in hallmarks of RI until 1899. But then there was already a others hallmarks.

Waste of time.
These fake silver plated copper spoons are sold in all russian flea markets.
I don’t know where they are made. Maybe in China, maybe in Romania ...

Hi
This fork was made by unknow maker "ИЦ". I think this maker from Odessa. 1914.
Соломон Гробдрук (Solomon Grobdruk) - was jewelery dealer. Perhaps he from Kishinev.

Production by “Лен.Юв.ф-ка”

Лен. - Ленинградская (Leningrad)
Юв. - ювелирная (jewelry)
Ф-ка - фабрика (factory)

Hi.
Yes, Matvei Sergeyev worked in Vyatka too. Matvei Sorokin worked before him (in Vyatka assay office)

I can add that Matvei Sorokin never worked in the Minsk Assay Office.
Short time (1874-1877) assayer Matvei Sergeyev worked in Minsk Assay Office (after Yaroslavl) .

No problem. Your right is use of all sources in open access.
I ask about other (various) sources, which you noted.

You are incorrigible (((
It is the wrong conclusion. See above.
The customs at that time sent nothing to an assay office. The customs had no such duty.

About "import". I think, it is necessary to divide concepts. There is import of products for sale through customs. It is official import with the corresponding procedures and attributes. But, silver products can be brought (from foreing) privately, as personal, own. Then, it was brought in...
