I have a coffee pot, marked sterling silver with shield markings that look like an eagle head, letter D, and seated figure. It is most likely American, but i cannot find the markings in libraries. Does anybody know what it is? The pot looks light and thin. Hope it is really sterling. Here are the pictures.

Unknown manufacturer - American?

Much to my chagrin that you got it and I didn't...grumble, grumble...it's the real deal. See Dunkirk Silversmiths, Inc. here: https://www.925-1000.com/americansilver_D2.html
Your's would be a variant of the mark.

Being as you are in Nu Yoke, it might be by their pedecessor the Gold Recovery and Refining Corp. (1940-45) of NY, NY. They should be under "G" listing.

Thank you very much! It looks exactly as the marks from Dunkirk Silversmiths.
