Presented is a wonderful English Georgian sterling silver marrow scoop spoon. This piece dates to 1769.

This piece is hallmarked on the underside with the lion passant for sterling silver, the leopard's head crowned for the city of London, the date letter for 1769, and a maker's mark of IM, possibly for Jacob Marsh or John Moore.
The marrow spoon is about 8 3/4 inches long.
The marrow spoon weighs 47.4 grams or 1.7 regular ounces.
