Provincial or American coin?

When I purchased this 4.750" (12.065cm) spoon was leaning towards American coin silver but particularly after looking at other recent posts in Provincial and Colonial marks am beginning to see potential here. Part of that also has to do with the very particular style of decorative work which I have seen very little of thus far. The partial makers mark appears to be JH. Would very much appreciate your thoughts.

Hi Warren,
It's travelled a long way. See Joseph Hicks of Exeter at:

As usual Trev you make that look easy, thanks so much. Appears to be the one marked as a later mark listed here on 925. Really love the design along the stem and the monogram.
