Hi Silverdigger,

Your spoon image is fine, but your mark image is too small to be identified.

Hi Silverdigger,

I believe that's a Dutch silverplate mark of H. Hooijkaas of Schoonhoven



Hopefully someone will confirm/deny

Hi Dognose and Silverdigger,

Yes, to my knowledge silver plated tea/coffee spoon made by Hooijkaas, and made for the famous Dutch coffee brander Douwe Egberts (today part of Sarah Lee Corp.), in the early seventies. Every pack of coffee, I believe since the late sixties, comes with a point’s coupon. A certain amount of points can be exchange for coffee cups, silver plated coffee canisters and those silver plated spoons with D. E in fancy writing letters and many other non silver plated items. The coffee coupons of D.E are still by many people collected and every so many years D.E changes the collection of his gift shop. http://www.douweegbertsenmeer.nl/Pages/default.aspx http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douwe_Egberts http://www.waanders.nl/default/hooijkaas.html
