Old silver ladle, looking to date

Received this as a gift from my grandmother. Looking to date


Looks like Exeter, 1828:

I can’t see the maker’s mark well enough even to make a guess.

Maybe Francis Parsons?

… or Isaac Parkin. The maker’s mark looks a bit damaged.

Yes, could be. But that maker’s mark appears to be mangled beyond any hope of teasing it out.

In any event, the poster is lucky to have a generous grandmother with a good eye for 200-year-old silver. Nice ladle!
