Utensil "Makers Mark" ID needed

Just trying to date a site. Any help with this is greatly appreciated. If you notice, The hallmarks, There appears to be what looks like an Eagle, cross and a star. And what ever the first one is. Thanks!

Technically not a hallmark:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hallmark

It would need to be made of a precious metal & it looks copper-alloy to me. I guess it may have been silver plated at one time & the markers marks were trying to somewhat fool people. Or it wasn't plated & its a registered makers mark which I have to clue on how to search,,, sorry not much help really

I agree these 4 marks may mean nothing and might have been made to fool; to look like silver hallmarks. We have had several similar spoon marks posted and were unsuccessful with an ID. It would be cool to search them out and post them all together.

I agree too that these are "fake" maker's marks.

They resemble many different makers marks and the closest silverplate mark I found, where 2 of the marks are similar, is George Richmond Collis & Co, but I still think its a fake. http://www.925-1000.com/silverplate__Init_G.html
