Large Table Spoon

Post by mkad »

There was a previous post who asked about a small spoon that had "burton" and "a1" on them. So does this large tablespoon, but it has a lot more markings, and I was wondering if any of them indicate a maker, a date, a silver content, or a location.

I could take out my microscope camera for better pictures, but at least to my eyes, they appear to be "24", a Flying Eagle in profile, Two herald animal heads, moon and axe, a gothic "P", "A1", and "Burton." Anybody recognize this? It's weird to me (a novice) that there seems to be three sets of markings, as though they're from different entities.

Thanks for any information,
Michael

Hi Michael,

The likely maker:

I was the poster of the small spoon by Burton. The mark is that of Anthony Burton of Sheffield, not William S. Burton of London.
