<p>[QUOTE="silvermakersmarks, post: 9537180, member: 66620"]This may very well be an early English spoon. With the marks so worn I can only speculate but I think that one of the 2 remaining marks (the one farthest from the bowl) may be the leopard's head erased used on Britannia standard silver. This standard (958) was the legally mandated standard from 1697 to 1720.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
