I don't think it's as old as it looks, the lettering font looks quite modern and possibly printed, whereas early Staffs would be hand-lettered.

Transfer-printed ware can date to 1780+. The flaw in the glaze (looks like a crack) rarely happens like this in modern pottery. The stains on the rim and dirt filled pitting (small holes) suggests to me that it may be more than 100 years old.
