Fake Mark??

Hello,
This silver tray bears marks by Gorham and retailer marks for Theodore B. Starr. I have been told that they are cleverly faked marks.
I just wonder if anyone has an opinion on if the marks do look to be fake? I am not an expert but to me they seem right.
Thank you for any assistance ...

Re: Help with marks on silver salt cellars

Good Morning,
I had one of the salt cellars tested by a local assayer using EDXRF. The report came back with the pieces testing as 87.04% AG or silver.
I wonder if they might by Hanau silver marks, however I remain confused!
Any thoughts appreciated.
Thank you again!

Re: Help with marks on silver salt cellars

Hello Peter,
Thank you for your speedy reply.
I wonder if you might be able to direct me as to where to look for this mark (or should I move this over to the silverplate section?).
With you advice, I searched about the animal skin mark and cannot find any references.
Would you have an idea of where ...

Large Sterling Urn Mark Identification

Hello,
I am seeking help to identify the maker/origin of this piece.
It had a tag in it saying that it was American, but I am unsure.
The mark is a lion rampant and 925.
Thank you for taking a look!
