Description: | Early post medieval silver spoon, 159mm long, with a bowl 60mm long, 48mm wide and 10mm deep. The object is in good condition and weighs 38.95grams. The spoon has a deep ovoid bowl which is stamped with a very clear crowned leopard just below the handle neck. The handle is sub- hexagonal in form and tapers out gently to a plain terminal made up of a sloping hexagonal surface facing forwards which contains the engraved initials EP. The reverse of the handle has a lion passant close to a garbled makers mark (possibly an D crossed by a bow? see Jackson pp117 for comparison on apostle spoon in authors collection) (see centre of photo). the date letter is an L which should be 1628-29.
