According to my computer, the image seems to be saved at a resolution of nine hundred and seventy six pixels at its highest, which seems to be well under the eight inch rule. If I coud get the maximum pixel specifications, that would be greatly apprecated, thank you.

8 x 96 = 768 pixels maximum width or height.

Hi,

This spoon was imported to Sweden between 1. 1. 1913 and 1. 7. 1988, when the import mark three crowns in an oval was used. After 1988 it is no longer mandatory to use it.

.

I guess that your spoon was imported from Germany in the latter part of the 20th century and the mark beside 830 is the maker's mark.

Hope this helps!
Best regards/JAKJO
