Hello - I was hoping I might be able to inquire some assistance in the identification of the below spoon. It may have been staring me in the face but I couldn't find this pairing of marks in the general guide. I am also tying to identify if this piece is silverplated or sterling. Thank you for any assistance! It's appreciated.

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

That is one of the several marks used by James Dixon & Sons of Sheffield. The ladle will have been silver-plated or nickel silver. Had it been silver it would have struck with official hallmarks.
