    Unfortunately I can't quite make out enough of the mark to make a stab at it, I will scan my books later and see if anything resembles it. Guessing it ends in an 'E'

    In my mind, I see the date letter for 1711-1712 and the use of Britannia standard which is 958/1000, not Sterling 925/1000. I am jealous too!
    Unfortunately I could not find the maker. Hopefully Ce BCA have better luck.

    It's very similar, but the spur goes down and out of the ring on the 1711 and across and contained on the 1702

    The dot may be a "grain de remede" and point to a Huguenot maker.

    I agree, it's 1702-1703, Queen Anne.

    The Queen Anne date adds a nice premium to an already great looking piece. The overall pic is too small to tell but I'm guessing the scene is later Victorian meddling as usual - doesn't seem to harm the prices as much these days though.

    I assume that the beaker has been given a later chased decoration. Most objects during Queen Anne's reign were undecorated.

    Well found, that certainly does look like a strong possibility.

    @fettan4 - Is that a spacer in the handle, or just the way the light is catching a ridge?
