Not sure if this could help to the discussion but here is the spoon of the same (I believe) maker. 1845, Moscow https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/jA1zkCqXKyBUOQxqx9RiLztX471_JJE0Ltw4CigYM_B9E6-Sng10VRmMYohFMydUhpSGImmggu5ofz5HpQbsP5zkWvn1FZuSAm9IcQvEYjjMYne805K_xehBegFoKn3A7kDuuEaC6uLSwf29P4b0iryqdW...

Thank you, so much! By any chance, do you have that image in a higher resolution?

Thank you guys for referring me to the assayer on the last spoon, very interesting to look into more information about him.

By the way, would you recommend any reading? I have a book by Postnikova/Loseva. Is there anything else you could advise to read/learn from?

Very interesting!

Thank you so much for your insights. I totally agree - time, more literature and verified collections reviews will help in the long run :)

How about this spoon: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/sTV7az8F82OcUYfLeVNgDh5tq3i7lvf85rKwAnsCb2HU-sUzXt1ugbOEjlSwxZhDKQb7QkibeGETQBfgpw9KWs-12ne06RQ0E9ozX6fx6reZzKzlg171HH--YLscSiWxW08SeiuLlOmd9NtQTJ2SdLgkbvqOHduU30cjGdAwXxwNNoQMTeuD1s7r18u4uCcvhIobZD7zj0-uckA6exlWdcOTBbRytElvu10-dU6ECvO2178i_Xxm...

Thank you!

These 2 sets I put originally in the post - they just didn't seem authentic. On top of that, the hallmarks of the makers were not stamped with a stamp, but rather just 2 letters imprinted.

Here are the close ups:

I've been collecting Russian spoons for a while and here's my collection: https://photos.app.goo.gl/zEJnpK2zwWnnnkb37 Since my friends know of my hobby I got a present at different times and I'm not sure about these 2 sets of spoons that I received: https://photos.app.goo.gl/PZ49C9buZR2M23Xv8 (admin...
