Description

A GOOD ANTIQUE GEORGE II, ENGLISH STERLING SILVER MARROW SCOOP WITH CORONET CREST c1750.
A very good, 18th century, George II, English Sterling Silver Marrow Scoop made in London and dating from c1750.
It is hallmarked with the maker's mark "EC" for Ebenezer Coker, the Lion Passant sterling silver mark, the Leopard's Head Crowned London town mark and date letter. The date letter is rubbed, however I think it is the letter "l" for 1746/47. This "EC" maker's mark was registered in 1745 and in use until around c1757.
There are engraved initials below a coronet (crown). Coronets are small crowns specifying the bearer's rank in the peerage.
This marrow scoop is in excellent condition.
It measures approximately 8 3/4" inches (220mm) in length.
The weight is 52.7g.
A lovely example of English Georgian silver for the antique silver collector.
