A nice silver spoon of the apostle Petrus. It looks that these marks are pseudomarks, but I am not sure.
Somebody who recognize these marks? Thanks!

Although I never seen this type of Apostle spoon before. Perhaps town mark of Kollum, province of Friesland, without year letter (z.j.l), vague maker's mark of crescent & star for Pieter Douwes, active 1654-1665

My advice, consult an expert on Frisian silver, and please inform us. I stand to be corrected. I will also move you to other countries for results.
