Hello,

I would like to ask experts here to check my conclusions on several silverware items that I have. This is the first of three, a spoon which tests as silver but is likely silver plated with thick layer of plating. Unfortunately, I am not able to make out the makers mark, or even the country of manufacturing.

Thank you for help

The French maker is Société Anonyme Argental, registered in 1921.
The symbol is a halberd ("une hallebarde").

Thanks for the confirmation.

(I know the meaning of 18 G, that was not the question).
