Hello, could it be a late Augsburg-mark? Today I looked in the book from HELMUT SELING, and there is a "FCS" mark, wich looks very similar to this mark (Seling No. 2738). The mark is from Franz Carl Schmedding (1805-1872). The Date-letter "R" was used 1856. Kind regards, Ringo

Hello Theoderich,
I thank you very much.
The spoon looks like made about or a little after 1800 and if the date-letter is really an "G", Johann Carl Franz August Sonnabendt was quite young.

Thanks and kind regards,
