Hello! Bought this spoon from somebody who found it using the metal detector. Could you, please, help me identifying it? Thank you!

Looks like an antique Irish (Celtic) baby or medicine spoon to me if it is much smaller than a teaspoon. Has a religious theme to it. Maybe a baptismal gift?
Has the appearance of sterling but I see no mark. Perhaps heavy silver plate?

Thank you! I was told it's a Celtic cross apothecary spoon.
