Hi,
Right, 84 was silver standard in Imperial Russia for .875 fineness.
The spoon was assayed in Moscow / town mark on the right is St George Moscow assay office mark, see here:
https://www.925-1000.com/Frussia_city_01.html

In maker`s initials (mark on the left) the first letter cannot be deciphered, making it difficult to identify.
Will try to sort out possible candidates with family name started with A.
Regards

Sorry, too many Moscow silversmiths working in 1868 whose last name started with A / almost impossible to narrow the search.

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

Try taking your images in natural daylight, no flash. Use the Macro feature on your camera.
