Unknown American Spoon

Having a little trouble with these marks.. Anyone have a reference for this one? It came with some other New York coin spoons.

Sorry those are pseudo hallmarks. They are meant to give an impression of quality. The D is generally accepted to mean Dollar, or coin quality.
They were very popular on NY coin silver. Even if you found the same marks with a maker's mark, it wouldn't mean much as they were often shared by more than one silversmith.

Nothing to be sorry about. It's a part of the history! The other spoons these were traveling with dated about 1840, but these are heavier gauge and more worn. Any guess as to date of production?

[Francais]

It could be maybe 10 years earlier, but I doubt much more, and it could be 1840. The change in styles were dependent on location, and the changes are often rather subtle.
