British sugar tongs? or Coin Silver?
I recently recieved this very nice Sterling tongs with a mark I am having trouble with. F.M. as to maker, what looks like a duty mark, lion and date code G. Am I on the right track as to it being English? Any help as to to the maker would be of great help also. http://sv1.letmehost.com/sv1/7/Sterlin...
