Looks like the crowned leopard's head and the lion passant used from 1756 onwards. If there is not even a shadow of a duty mark that would give you 1756 to 1783 as a date range. I am not sufficiently "in" to hollow ware to attempt to date more precisely by the style of the piece.

Good luck with the grumpy one.
