Hi
I'm new to the Forum and wondered if anybody might be able to help me to identify a couple of old Silver Spoons. I wonder if anybody can tell me anything about them, i.e, age, maker and if there might be any possible values ?
Any inforation would be gratefully recieved.
Robbo

Your first spoon has Chester import marks for 1906 with the sponsors' mark BM for B Muller & Son of Wardour Street, London. The other marks on the spoon appear to be what are known as Hanau pseudo marks. The German town of Hanau was a centre for silver manufacture with a number of different companies producing silver. I don't recognise the particular marks on your spoon, but there is a selection of Hanau marks here.

I can't help with the other spoon.
