The salt spoon has the same marks, only with date letter t for 1918.

The silver shows some signs of wear on both pieces. One has a few small dents on one side and the other has light openings/cracks at the corners, see photos..... this is not distracting and they can of course be used as they are.
Otherwise they are in good condition, as is the spoon.
Will be well and carefully packed.
