Does anyone know if this spoon is George Giles or George Gray? I'm thinking George Gray, but I was told it may be George Giles? I couldn't find a makers mark for George Giles on the site. I believe it's London, 1798, King George III. Any info would be appreciated! Thank you in advance!

Hi,
It's definitely George Gray. Gray was primarily a retailer who often used to overstrike the maker's mark of others with his own mark, no doubt this was the reason for his larger than usual punch.
