I had a similar thought. I actually thought it was a 2 headed griffin. Sounds like sometimes pseudo European hallmarks were used in America.
From AI: A coin silver spoon with a pseudo mark or griffin stamp typically points to 19th-century American or Canadian silversmithing traditions where makers imitated official British hallmarks. [1, 2, 3]

That mark looks like a 2 headed lion. Maybe Whiting Mfg. If so, it's pre-1926 when they got bought by Gorham.
