Teaspoon with a crown emblem

Good day
Found this teaspoon today. I think it could be silver and not plated. It's marked with a wheel in triangle, S L and then an anchor. I am also interested in the K.D with crown mark on it.

Backside bowl teaspoon, the damaged spot, in my opinion shows the spoon is silverplated.

I have just sanded and buffed the back of the bowl to get rid of a very deep scratches. No nickel came through but a metal resembling a more grey silver color. I now wonder if this could be silver plated on a lower grade of silver?

Ok, I took out my magnet. The stem is super magnetic but bowl nothing at all. So this is silver plated steel.

Those damaged spots, back side bowl are often found on older used silver-plated teaspoons.
