Yes the marks are a little difficult to read but if they are as described:- What would look like a shield but is a leopards head in a box. A lion with front paw raised in box, An italic 'n' in a box and queen victorias head in a box, then the spoon is certainly solid silver from London and probably 1868-9.
Not sure who the TW maker is . Someone will know. Best wishes, Mike.
