It appears that you have a Moll. (That's Herman Moll, not the furry kind.)
While I have not looked for your specific plate, a similar plate appears in his 1732 'Atlas Minor' published in London.

Greetings Map-L-ers!
I wonder if any of you might be able to help me identify a map I have
in my possession. I assume it came out of a book of some sort (I
didn't amputate it; I'd never do such a vile thing!) but I don't see
any indication of where it came from on it anywhere.
I have a photo of it online linked below if anybody would like to take
a crack at it. If anybody would like topoint me at someone who would
be a good candidate for IDing it, I'd also love to get that sort of
nudge. Being a cartographer rather than a map librarian, I don't have
the resources you folks might.
Here is the link:

Many thanks (in advance)
