Other spoon with indistinct mark to bowl reverse just below rat-tail. There is engraved lettering (probably Dutch) around the outside and date 1727.  Tests around 87% Ag. Fellows uses a Thermo Scientific Nitron Handheld XRF Analyser to test metals. This technology is limited to examining metal to a depth of approximately 8 microns. Fellows does not guarantee the standard of silver unless an item is hallmarked. Results from electronically tested items should only be used as a guide and with caution, as false readings are possible.
