Fork fragment with back markings. Country and age??

[testing123]

Found this piece, which looks to be a part of an old fork. It's certainly not silver. There are some hallmarks, but I'm not sure if they're completely toast. It was found in a field with some items that dated to the 1700s. Can anyone recognize any of these? Looks like there are 5, but the 5th is hard to see.

Thanks in advance for any info!

4th might be a Geo. duty mark, but I think these are pseudo hallmarks from a American piece. Style is fiddleback, so 19th c.

might also have been silver plated & designed to fool or dress up a cheaper version
