This spoon is marked with 6 F, so 1731 / 1732. Here is also a makersmark. It is unclear, but looks like a BO or DO.
I need some help here...
Thanks!

Indeed Groningen, year letter E of the 6st alphabet for 1729/30
Maker's mark FDB conjoined in monogram attributed to Frederik de Booser, registered in Groningen, around 1722-< 1753. The wide, oval bowl transitions directly into the stem. On the back of the accolade-shaped stem end W.D and R.J.H engraved and a retailer's mark(?) in rectangle.
Nice find!
Peter.
