If you search SILVER HALLMARKS: STERLING, SILVERPLATE, ELECTROPLATE, SHEFFIELD you may be able to work out who the manufacturer and date of production. This forum frowns upon giving valuations but in this instance I can say the spoon has very little value apart from a historical context. Nickle silver as you may be aware has no silver content unless plated. The usual formulation is 60% copper, 20% nickel and 20% zinc.
Rgd's, Mark.
Thanks for the input mark! I figured it dosnt have much monitory value but its a cool piece for my collection i will defiantly be trying to find out how old it is.
Hello,
Interestingly, the spoon appears a lot like the regulation or approved patterns we see used by the British Army during WWI. Of course without the broad arrow, unit markings etc its a long shot and only an observation.
I would suggest it dates from the late 19th century to the Great War era.
It does look very similar. Thanks i will dig deeper.
