This is not typical shape of spoon bowl for egg spoons I have seen in the past, just wondering if it is or another type of spoon. front and back of the spoon bowl photos below. Thank you in advance for any help. https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg

Not sure if the makers mark is for Thomas Northcote or not on a spoon, thanks in advance for any help.

Cheers Trev, always good to get another's opinion when unsure. Just wasn't sure if the thistle punch was Edinburgh or not, as it was the standard thistle mark I have seen previously. I didn't find the maker mark looking under Edinburgh. I'll keep searching.

Thanks Phil, trust me to have the mark upside down. I knew I had seen the makers mark before, just couldn't remember!

Not sure if these are Scottish provincial marks or not, I have searched, but have been unable to find a match on the maker anywhere, Makers mark is either MR or MP (more likely I think). The thistle mark is not typical of Edinburgh's thistle mark. The item is a spoon. https://www.925-1000.com/pics/X...

Just wondering if this is a mark belonging to Marmaduke Daintry or someone else. I know I have seen this mark before, but wondering if my memory is playing tricks on me! Item is a silver spoon.

Thank you

Trev.

Thanks Trev, I will have a look at see if I can find anything similar.

Yeah, it was a mistake, I think I had Birmingham on the brain for some reason at the time of posting it!

I am unsure of the makers mark C & A is for Corke & Apthorp or for Collett & Anderson

Item is a silver and tortoiseshell hatpin if that helps and is hallmarked for Birmingham, 1919

It is, I should have stuck to my original instinct and carries on searching, I am sure I would have come across it still.

Forgot to add, I originally thought this might be Scottish provincial, but was unsure after I checked my little book that has minor guild marks in. Glad my initial thought were correct.

Thanks Trev, done a little more digging myself after posting and found that out, just came on here to post that info, you beat me to it! :-)

I am not sure if the marks on this salt ladle are colonial or from somewhere else, any help would be appreciated. I have already done some searching but didn't come up with anything, it would just be nice to know where this piece has come from. The marks are R IK B Marks in photo below. https://www....

They are English hallmarked silver, but they look like a dressing table set, hairbrushes from the photos, if so, they are silver mounted.

HM is for Henry Matthews, assayed at Birmingham 1912

Date letter B for 1926, date letter Z for1924

You're welcome.

There is probably more to the makers mark, but has probably worn away, sometimes using a loupe and getting the mark in the right light, you can sometimes see more.

They are London hallmarks, not Gorham. There also appears to be faded / worn makers mark next to the lion passant, looks like a H

I have looked online without much success trying to ID the maker of a ring I found today clearing through some things at home. Curiosity has got the better of me! The makers mark is RMM It is marked sterling and has the eagle mark with a 3 within, which if I remember correctly, is for Taxco. I am no...

For some reason the marks look like 9ct to me, could be white gold.
