Found this spoon yesterday metal detecting. I think it's German possibly from Nuremberg? Anybody got any ideas. Thank you

German for sure.
I looked at every mark in the international encyclopedia of silver marks and did not find this under German marks going back before 1886 even. I did find the 800 mark with the added marks with it listed as being Danish assay marks but my eyes were to tired to pursue it.
German yes, looks like the mark for Gebruder & Kuberlin

See if you recognise the mark. And turn the photo and it will be easier :) your marks are upside down.
Elisabethan you are right. I can see the mark on the link you posted but when I bring the same page up on my computer by typing in the URL the mark isn't there. Seems odd it would show on one and not the other. I've had the site bookmarked for years. Maybe I need to delete it and re bookmark it and see if it is up to date. Shouldn't matter but my firewall rules prevent some things being auto updated.
Glad you found the mark and posted the link.
Thank you for the link and info. I looked for hours and couldn't find it .. very interesting. thanks again.
Fhrjr2 you are welcome. Yes that seems odd, try and see. Might be the bookmark.
