The Elkington box has their private date-code letter V for 1881. And I can confirm John Edward Wilmot as the maker of the Birmingham piece. Phil
The moon and crown marks look German but they don't seem to be lined up in the "normal" way. If German is correct the flower maker's mark bears...
These date letters are S - 1773. For the armorial I suggest you spend a little time looking through the book Fairbairn's Crests, several editions...

The date letter Q is for the assay year 1811/12. You will not find the lion mark as it is the armorial of the owner. Many armorials are listed in...
