Silverunde…

Hi Everyone,
I need serious help on this one. I bought this many years ago at a tag sale, because I love penguins. However I was cleaning it up the other day and noticed the U S S R, and the other mark on it. I've checked several silver sites and can't find this mark, It kind of feels like sterling but???
It stands 3 1/2 inch with handle, then about 2 1/4 inch [cup], 2 3/4 wide.
The enamel of the penguins goes ALL around the cup.
I love this piece, and would just like to know a bit more history on it, age, if you think it is sterling, what it was used for, and especially that other mark...what does that represent????
Anyway, Thank you in advance to all for helping me out :) :)
