Help Identifying Marks are they Waterloo?

Hi All,
I have these two pieces of silver, supposed to be from between the battle of Waterloo and Trafalgar? Can anyone help me learn more about them please?

The hallmarks on your pieces indicate that they were made in 1805:

The top piece shows the maker’s mark for George Smith:

Identifying the second maker will be more tricky, since the maker’s mark has been mostly polished away!

London date letters changed on 29 May so K was in use 30 May 1805 until 29 May 1806. So K could be before or after Trafalgar but definitely before Waterloo.
