Hi,
Welcome to the forum.
The spoon is Italian.
The lion of Venice is on the right.
If you show better close up of the image on the left we might identify the maker.
Compare with shapes of Italian registered numbers here:

Or at least tell us what you see:
Being before 1968 you should see two or three digits and then two letters indicating Italian province abbreviation.

Btw. It`s not silver-plated but silver 800 fineness.

thank you very much for your answer.
It seems to be an inscription before 800.
23B0 or 2380....

It should look something like this: two or three digits, then TWO LETTERS
