I believe that they are psuedo-English hallmarks, hallmarks written in old-English script to make the buyer believe they are buying English sterling ware.

Anyone have a final verdict?

American made silver plate, probably 1920-1940.

Just tidying up some blasts from the past (including some very ancient ones), largely for the benefit of anyone searching the site for information.

Those are silver plate marks for the Forbes Silver Company of Meriden, CT, organized in 1894 as a department of Meriden Britannia Co.
