Thank you very much!

Could the eagle be a 1809-1812 Steuerstempel/Tax mark? Ref. Rosenberg 4423 - 4424.

Thank you! Interesting point, maybe it could be (X LÖTH.) in stead of IX LÖTH.

Thank you!

Any information on this spoon would be appreciated.
There are two marks, unknown to me.
There is also a faint engraving on the back side that makes me assume the spoon is german; either "Heinrich & Frau" or "Heinrick & Frau".
It weighs 25 grams and is 17.9 cm long, and after light polishing it ...

Hello Nata37,
it seems like one of the marks on your piece is an exact match to a mark I recently posted a question about.

I have pasted the two sets of marks into one picture below, with the marks from Nata37 on the left and the stamps on my plate on the right:

The middle mark (gothic M) is for E. B. Münster, assay master (guardein) in Christiania (present day Oslo) 1857 - 1862.

A Gorham Chantilly Sterling Teaspoon marked T

I found the https://www.925-1000.com/Gorham_Date_Code.html, and the marks seems to be in the style of the late 19th century.
Additionally, there is a sideways T in a rombus centered on the upper portion of the neck.

Does the T pinpoint the year of ...

J.H could be Jens Elias Hagenæss of Bergen, Norway
Hagenæss apprenticed as a filigree worker at the workshop of Marius Hammer from 1892.
He was later employed at the workshops of Marius Hammer (Bergen), Antonius Frisch (Kristiania, presentday Oslo), Clemet Berg (Kristiania) and at L. Gullhagen ...

Thank you, a backdated enscription would explain it! Interesting, enforcement of the 1893 standardization of danish hallmarking must have been lax and/or delayed.

Hi,
thank you both for the answer and the references, they are very interesting.

I must admit that I am still a bit confused, about the timing.
The date 16/5 - 91 is engraved on the back of the spoon. I suppose that makes it likely that it was made and stamped no later than 1891. If anything ...
