Stumped with marks on old Fish Serving Set?

[luv2learn]

Hello Everyone~I found this fish serving set and searched what I could but nowhere can I find these marks? Anyone have an idea? I appreciate all the help... Many Thanks

The makers mark on the collar looks to be William Beatson & Sons, Albion Works, Fitzwilliam Street, Sheffield and if the date letter is f (bit hard to see in the photo) its looks to be 1905.

You can see the makers mark on this page: http://www.925-1000.com/dlSheffield.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The EPNS mark on the blade is for electro plate nickel silver.

Hello

The Blades are Silver plated, the ferrules are solid silver and were made by William Beatson & Sons - they are hallmarked for Sheffield 1901.

Hello
I would interpret the date letter as "i" - hence 1901

I looked at the ferrule with more lens power and I believe it is the "i."
My follow up question is that I can't see the letters on the utensils reading "EPNS." Is there any other meaning to those letters? I have no idea what they are, and I certainly don't want to offend anyone with my new question.
Thank you's to everyone for sharing their knowledge~all are so Amazing!

The letters are EPNS in the Gothic alphabet which was frequently used for marking silverplated objects to add a touch of "class" - buyers wanted them to look like silver and not be too obviously plated.
