Solid Egyptian Silver Spoon

I have this spoon that says "Solid Egyptian Silver". Is that Sterling silver? or 100% solid silver?? Thank you.

Any hallmarks at all?

Possibly 80%....could be more if you find hallmarks post a picture!

Is that a hallmark in the slight trough on the back of the handle? Without a real hallmark you can't tell. The words don't mean much on their own. The pyramid style logo either side of the lettering is not a hallmark.

If this is the only hallmark?

I think you are going to have an acid on it.
Acid on the back of the bowl will easily clean up if it is silver.
If it is not silver acid will mark it for good.
