Agreed, although it was very likely one of the first items carried over by who ever settled that area. The acorn top is a popular European design.

At the bottom of the link you can see a similar type (brass, but could be Pewter) style spoon.
'Stuart, around 1650. A brass spoon with a seal top end and fleur de lys stamped on the bowl. '

Notice the similar top (not Acorn I know), & the wide bowl.

A spoon mold wouldn't be something laying around the average house in the day.

You may have the site of a tinsmith or silversmith shop. If you do it is going to be one wild metal detecting site.
