I have an Art Deco style condiment spoon with a Registration mark for 27 July 1878, maker's mark is AJP in a trefoil. Can anybody identify please?
(Apologies about the lack of photos, but I am still trying to get the hang of putting one on here.)

Checked my reference books but could not find the mark you describe.
If the P is actually a rubbed R a possibility could be the silverplate mark of Jehoiada Alsop Rhodes, Sheffield, England.

Pat,

Very many thanks, that would appear to be the one. The bottom right corner of the punch had not taken properly.

Only just found this forum, courtesy of Miles, so thought I would try to find out more.
Excellent advert for the expertise here.

Regards
Richard
