Another galleon, slightly different from others in this thread. The maker's mark has been overstamped by John Scofield.
Note the Union Jack at the stern.

A fine set of spoons by Elizabeth Oldfield. The spoons with their acorn bowls, a perhaps symbol of Jacobite sympathy, are 4 1/4" (10.8 cm) in length and would date to c.1750.

A page from the catalogue of Thomas Bradbury & Sons Ltd. of Arundel Street, Sheffield, showing some of their reproductions of Picture and Fancy Back back spoons. The catalogue is from c.1920.

Hi

This teaspoon circa 1765 appears to have a lion's face surrounded by scrolls.
