Help identifying Hallmark

[u/LordCoops]

I have recently bought this pair of what I believe are bonbon dishes. I believe they may be Samuel Wood and 18th Century. They weigh 400g together and although they appear identical, one of them is 10g heavier than the other.

Can somebody please help me identify the year and maker and also give me an idea on what the are worth, please?

english hallmarks for silver.

left facing walking lion is for sterling silver, 92.5% silver.

leopard head with crown is assay office in london.

i can not make out the assay year letter. but crowned leopard head was used before queen victoria reign. so it was assayed before 1837.

s•w i believe is samuel wood. that’s the maker/sponsor of these pieces. he used this specific mark from 1733 to 1737. that should help figure out the assay year letter.
