This is probably a dumb question, but...

We have what we think is a salt, pepper spoon with a maker's mark of the initials H.K. followed by a symbol, the word "sterling" and the number: 2041.

We looked under the index of marks and couldn't find H.K. We would really appreciate any input on this.

Thank you for your time, it is much appreciated!

ID would be much easier if you could post a picture, at the very least, a description of the symbol you mention should be included.
