I'd be surprised to see hallmarks on it but i suppose it could be low grade silver.

The double headed eagle is widely used symbol. My guess is that itīs Russian, they used this symbol really a lot.

Found this on the web:

"Hoc signum vere regum est" means "This is the true signal of the kings"

The initials "K" and "J" are for Kraljevina Jugoslavija or the Kingdom of Yugoslavia.

The central shield is wrong for Yugoslavia

In my opinion, here it's for the Spanish Queen Johanna and King Carlos (Karolus)

This is Yugoslavia



Put the motto in quotes in Google, then the word silver. Loads of results similar to those posted by the OP

You do know about Spain and Peru back in the day ?

" These arms were granted by the Spanish King in Valladolid on November 3, 1536. The blue field represents justice, beauty, sweetness, loyalty and perseverance. The red band stands for bravety, nobility, honour, generosity, joy and magnanimous spirit.
The three gold crowns represent the three magician kings of the bible and three Spanish catholic kings. The eight pointed star represents majesty, peace, greatness, prudence and fecundity. This is the Star of Bethelem that announced Christ's birth. The motto says in Latin "Hoc signum vere regum est" (This is the true signal of the kings). Lima was named by the Spanish conquerors as the King's City. The letters I and K stand for the Spanish Queen Johanna and King Carlos (Karolus). The two-headed eagle is the Spanish imperial eagle. "

I'm not jumping anywhere.  I haven't said it couldn't be Peruvian when it could, for instance.

Never claimed to have a degree in Spanish history, although most people will know about Spain and South America

You've been hostile and rude ever since i pointed out you were wrong about the eagle heads.
