Sterling Gravy Boat. Possibly Birmingham?

I have this gravy boat passed down through the family (Goodrich) and am trying to figure out its origin. I am not sure but think the lion is that of Birmingham. Not sure of the "S" before the lion or even the number 204. Thanks for any and all help!

Hi,

No, no idea of the date. Post an image of the item and someone may know.

You need to embed your images. Few people will click on links.
