The combination of individual marks shows that this cannot be English (or British) silver. What may be intended to look like an uncrowned leopard’s head (a London mark) would never appear with a crown (a Sheffield mark). I suspect either American coin silver or electroplate. Please clean out the marks so that we can see them properly and then re-post a clear picture.

The motto “Free for a Blast” has, according to Fairbairn’s Crests, been used by families named Clark, Clerk, Clerke, Pennycock, Pennycoock, Pennycuick and Rattray.
