Hi,
I believe that this piece may be Andrew Ellicott Warner coin silver, but I am just not sure because I could not find a hallmark of his that looks like this.
Any thoughts or help appreciated!
Thank you.
Victoria

Yes, that is Warner's mark. The queen's head/D is a Baltimore standard mark

Thank you both!
I was confused because the marks that I found spelled out Warner.
I appreciate your expertise!
Happy Holidays.

Or the head of liberty disencumbered of a cap?
