I'll be very grateful for any help with those marks on 2 silver tea spoons, judging from the writing of a German origin.
Many thanks in advance.

Hi,
Please embed your images as very few members will click on such links.
https://postimages.org (choose 'Share', then copy the 'Hotlink for forums' code) is recommended. Do not use Photobucket or Dropbox.

Dear Trev, thank you so much for all your help. I did all you've suggested, on my screen photos are showing, I did the same way a photo on silverplate forum and there everything came out right and I received an answer, photo was showing. In this post I used preview and all was well. I'm embarrassed to use so much space for 1 post but don't see any possibility of deleting my previous posts, or editing them, and to try to do it all over again.
Thank you for your patience, it's a shame bcs it's a real mystery mark.... :-(

Hello, HS for Hugo Sandig, active in Liegnitz/Silesia (named today Legnica, Poland) since 1869 well into the 1930ies. This pattern can be dated to ca. 1902/05. Regards, Bahner

Thank you so much, you are brilliant, I still don't see any HS but you must know your silver very well to recognize such obscure marks. I'll look up this silversmith, there is also some writing on the spoon in German and the same words/surname on the other spoon seem to be overwritten. Thank you again... :-)
