Large antique ladle. Silver?

Post by Mr. Digger »

First post here on the forum, so apologies if I am not adding this to the correct place. I've recently inherited a very large quantity of 19th and early 20th century sterling and coin silver flatware and other misc pieces. This large ladle is the only one with this marking on it. Does that say 800M? I know 800 means 80% silver, but there are no other identifying marks or silversmith hallmarks on it. Is this definitely silver? Best guess on age? Thanks for looking!

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Adding a picture is simplicity itself. Just upload your picture to an online picture host and embed the link in your post. https://postimages.org is recommended as an image host (after uploading your picture/s click 'Share', then copy and paste the 'Hotlink for forums' code to embed your images). Do not use Photobucket or Dropbox.
