However is not really old as it has STERLING marked on the back.

Can't help I did a quick search of caot of arms, didn't see a match, but very few have the "cross bar" an an angle ?

A bigger pic might help someone else though.

The four original symbols for the Montreal crest were a beaver, thistle, rose, and shamrock. The crest lost the beaver in 1938, when a fleur de lys was substituted.
