DUTCH SILVER PLATE MARKS

Post by Essexboy Fisher »

Hello I very recently got at auction a bunch of souvenir spoons. Mostly were routine silver plated examples but 2 spoons stimulated a bit of extra interest for me. Hopefully some readable pictures of the spoons and marks are shown below.

Both the spoons appear to be gifts strangely from “Scheveningen, a place “Google” tells me is a seaside part of the “Hague”. This indicates the spoons are likely to be Netherlands manufactured and they do not carry any obvious Netherlands silver hallmarks.
One spoon is stem marked and has the marks “J.A.H 96” on it. The “H” could alternatively be an “N” or “M”. Could this lettering be a manufacturer’s mark or was it just a “personalisation” of the spoon post manufacture?

Can the forum give me any help with the identification and manufacturer.
Yours,
Fishless
