AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A large 25 cm sterling silver paper knife containing a coin of Grand Master Emmanuel de Rohan, dated 1780. According to a fading inscription on the lower part, it was given as a gift in 1801 by an esquire — “A. J….. Esq., from ……… Malta 1801”. The names, however, are difficult to decipher.

There may be hallmarks present, but I have not been able to find any. A jeweller has confirmed that it is solid silver.
