Help identifying hallmarks on spoon

Post by Couperus »

I normally collect Dutch silver spoons, but couldn't resist buying this large 12in spoon. I only recognize the leopard and lion, but know absolutely nothing else about British marks. Can anyone identify these hallmarks for me?

Thanks all

Hi Couperus,

Your spoon was made by Hyam Hyams and assayed at London in 1824.

An explanation of British marks can be found at: http://www.925-1000.com/british_marks.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Thank you!

I hope I don't develop a second addiction to British spoons. It is seductive.
