Hello all. I was hoping someone could help me identify the markings on this tray I inherited. Curious if sterling or plated, when and where made. Any info is appreciated.
Thank you!

This item of silver plate’s makers seem to have decided to put every historic UK silver mark and a few others which are not, on his candle wick trimmer plate.
Some of these marks, including the lion’s head erased, this forum has been asked about before:
Now we have a set of initials, probably LS or IS/JS or even TS.
This is almost certainly US plate which frequently used faux UK marks and presumably there are limited numbers of US makers with the same initials.

That is very interesting, thank you! Disappointing, but interesting all the same.
