May have found maker but somewhat confusing "WILLIAM PUGH"MAKER MARK AND BOX MATCHE'S,HE SOMETIME DOUBLE HALLMARKED HIS WARE'S.THE town/country mark looks as though it's a hallmark over a hallmark Why???,why is it not english marked??? import/export. the W.P. rectangle box,even corners match???
Re: Help I.D. hallmark for country was made Norway???????
Mind my asking, what is confusing? You got the answer from Theoderick. The spoon has an rather ordinary marking for being made in Denmark. The maker WP is as mentioned a Dane, Wolfgang Petersen, active in the town of Haderslev 1825-1851. He was born in 1800 and died 1883 in Copenhagen. Your spoon has nothing to do with UK or English silver marks.
