Small spoon, is this London? And what year?

I got this small spoon and struggle to date it. From the style/decoration the 1790ies would fit, which would be 1792 for the small "r". Bur the shape of the letter does not fit, also the shape of the cartouches do not fit, and the style of the lion is also different.
Can you help me?
Thank you, Jörg

Hi,
The lion passant of this form is dubious.
That`s all I can tell.

The hallmark is fine for London 1792. Note that there was some variation in punches depending upon the size of marking required. Published hallmark illustrations do not take these variations into account.
