Hey guys, I have searched google to the core and can not, for the life of me, find any viable answers to where this came from and what it's present value is.

The "Rd." number is a British Design registry mark , a type of patent giving three years protection from copying that indicates the design of this set dates to 1897-1900. The other markings indicate this set is Sterling silver, but are almost too worn to read. From what I can see the set appears to have been made in Glasgow, Scotland, the letter "D" is a date mark for 1900, the "F.S" stamp is for the marker, John Alexander Fettes. A set like this by Fettes would go for $1200.00- $1500.00 at auction.
