All I know Its london.

The only makers initials I have with that hallmark is Edward Vincent, but the mark resembles nothing like that in my book. vincents hallmarks represented 1st half of the 18th century but i don't think this piece is. there is also a footnote about vincent, saying he was a naughty silvermaker, who was a very fine craftsman, but was into duty doging after 1720, bit like @stefffana and his leady trays....

sorry i cant be much help

Definitely Sheffield with the crown.

Just as an aside for those who are inquisitive. Sheffield and Birmingham both petitioned to have assay offices back in the day, as you can see they were successful. The pub where the people organising it had their meetings in was the Crown and Anchor - as a result of a coin toss they ended up with their respective city marks - despite Birmingham being not exactly near the sea and Sheffield not being well known for making crowns.
