Hi, I think the Jug is Russian - dated and Purity mark of 84%, not plated. Take a look at the 'World marks' - Russia Section. BTW, nice Piece.

Hello.

Those are Russian marks.
84 stands for 84 zolotniks which is .875 fineness.
AT is the assayer's mark for D. Tverskoy (1834-1850).
The last mark on the right is a slightly rubbed St. Petersbug town mark.
Sorry, don't know the maker.

Pat.
