I would be very grateful if someone could help me identify what this spoon commemorates. Hopefully the photo clearly shows the shield with letters, supported by a winged eagle? (The letters appear to be K B O G C). Underneath in scrolls it says 1900 1950 Jubilee Hong Kong. The spoon is marked Sterling. It was just in a box I bought at auction here in Sydney Australia. Many thanks in advance.

KBGC ?
I think the circle in the centre is just a design, then reading top down, left to right, we get KBGC, or Kowloon Bowling Green Club.
