Mote spoon marks help required

Postby techsol » Thu Sep 26, 2013 10:21 am

Hi All,

I have aquired this mote spoon, which by its design and basic piercing I would attribute to early 18thc. I am really stuggling to decipher the two hallmarks, the one nearest the bowl I assume is the makers mark, the other I would expect to be the lion passant but what remains doesn't seem to match and it also doesn't appear to resemble any part of the lions head erased. Anybody got any suggestions on either or both of these marks?

Regards,
Martin
