Incomplete London marking

[silverfan]

These 4 spoons are marked with the sovereign, the crowned leopard, the date letter looking like W but must be a M for 1807 and the lion passant. The maker's mark is lacking. Are the spoons really made in 1807?

Hi Silverfan,

No, much later, and a long way from London.

Check out Wong Shing of Canton here: viewtopic.php?p=198399&hilit=wong+shing#p198399

Thanks very much, Trevor. Far away from my thinking. By chance the first Chinese piece in my collection.
