Hi welcome back, after 8 years, to the forums,
Marks; Crown, Lion passant facing right, S, WK conjoined
See Hanau pseudo marks;

Go to unatributed pseudo -marks on Hanau style silver; possible Wolf & Knell?

Not British because the lion is walking the right way. It are Hanau style(German) pseudo marks .

Date letter ``S`` can be either 1838 or 1860, meaning ``sovereign’s head`` is missing.
Lion passant was always facing left.
This form of Sheffield crown has not been recorded.
There was no Sheffield maker with conjoined WK initials.
