The left marks tells us that us that your fork/spoon (?) is from the Austro-Hungarian Empire's capital Vienna (A). It is made in 1861. It is in silver in the purity of 13 lot meaning in promille 812,5/1000. The maker's mark is to the right. In a while somebody will tell you who the maker is in plain words.
FYI!
Please do not show two different objects in the same thread! It will only cause confusion.

Hello!
It seems the mark of the Schiffer & Theuer:
