Help with German Hallmark Request

Hello:

I acquired several large German (I think) Serving or Tablespoons at an Estate Sale and am looking for ANY information regarding them. The spoons measure ~9.25" long, are VERY similar, and bear the Danzig City "crown and 2 crosses" mark. But they appear to be made by 2 different makers. My questions are these: Who made them? When? (I am ASSUMING they are pre-1886) What is their Silver content? 13/16 Toth?

Because the spoons bore no marks regarding their silver content/fineness, the Seller ASSUMED that they were plate - I suspect otherwise, tho!

ANY information that you can provide would be quite welcome!

Cheers!
Greg

Rosalowsky = Robert Adolf Rosalowsky
the W- mark is probably Gottlieb Ephraim Wulsten and the Z-Mark coulb be from Zacharias &Sohn

the spoon are about 1860-70
and 12 Loth = 750/1000
