Hi Anna. Welcome to the forum. If it were solid silver it would be marked with .980, .925, sterling or have an eagle mark. Los Castillo worked with metals other than silver: mixed metals, copper, brass, silverplate, etc. Here's a scan from Billy Hougart's book. http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n80...

I don't have much information on the firm of Hans Jensen.

You're mark looks like late 20th century to me.

Hello.

My guess would be Hans Jensen.

Hello. I believe you have an early set of Roberts & Belk silverplate marks. On June 30, 1863 the partnership of Roberts & Briggs was dissolved. By February 1864 Samuel Roberts had entered into a partnership with Charles Belk. Became "Ltd." in 1901. Sold to C.J. Vander in 1961. http...

Hello.

Looks like D.B. Hinman & Company to me.

You're welcome.

Simon Groth was the assayer from 1863 to 1904.
The middle mark would be the maker's mark.

Pat.
