Hello,
Would someone be able to tell me what these hallmarks are on this sterling silver tray. It belonged to my great-grandfather from Madrid, Spain.
Many thanks.

La primera marca es la oficial para la plata española en la ciudad de Palma de Mallorca, utilizada a principios del s. XX.
Rey fueron unos orfebres de la ciudad ya desaparecidos y sin información sobre su trayectoria.
La ultima marca, no es una marca oficial de la plata española, pudiendo ser una conmemoración otorgada a la Joyería Rey.
