Description: | A post medieval silver spoon with a balloon shaped bowl that has worn slightly dented and has a hole in the deepest part. The 104.21mm long handle is undecorated and sub rectangular in section [thickness: 6.85mm].There is a crowned leopards head in the bowl just below the handle indicating it was made in London between 1300 and the present day. On the back of the handle is a mark that looks like I L or J L which may be John Lambe of London. Next to it is a mark of a lion passant indicating that the spoon is sterling silver.. At the top back of the handle is a lower case f in a squarish shield which ids the date letter for 1623. The obliquely cut handle end has the initials LH inscribed on it presumably for the owner.
