Help Identifying Pickle fork

I have been combing through search results to try and identify the hallmark on this pickle fork. I assume American made due to "Pat'd", I could be way off base. I don't believe it is rare I am just currious as to maker and possibly date. Any info would be appreciate

Trev,
Thank you so much. I was looking at it totally upside down, I even photographed like that. I searched all the G and I hallmarks to no avail. Now that you tell me it is a D it is so obvious.
So I have seen it now listed as a lemon fork and the pattern is Fairfax which was first made in 1910.
