Unknown Marks

Post by Pooka »

Hello,

I've just acquired a lovely spoon and I've searched the pictures on the website but I can't find the marks shown on the spoon ( please see below the links to the pictures ). As I don't know the country of origin I've posted in the European Other Countries sub-forum.

The crisp hallmarks next to the two mystery marks are for the importer Elly Isaac Miller for 1901 London. If anyone can help with identifying the two mystery marks and what they signify I would be very greatful.

Thanking you,

Greg.
