Antique Questions Forum / Pirken Hammer Pope Benedikt XV Plate 1915

« on: January 15, 2006, 09:38:53 pm »

I also visited ginny's site about the markings and the date of the busines at that corresponding time.  The plate dates 1915. But the company assigned to the mark is a later date... hmmm... Don't know what that means.  In addition the plate has a number hand painted in red "6719"...The same# is what I've seen of the rest of the collection as well.  So not a number in a series but an identifier I guess.  You mentioned a website in your second post but I don't see the link.  When you get a minute I'd appreciate the link.

Thank you so much!

Antique Questions Forum / Pirken Hammer Pope Benedikt XV Plate 1915

Hi there,
Wanted to throw this out for any comments, advice, ideas on what this plate is worth.  

After my grandmother passed away over 15 years ago, I was digging around in the basement to find dishes for my first appartment, recently I had it on display on my hutch and while dusting, discovered what it said on the back!

 I've gotten a little help on ebay and have seen a set of 12 papal service plates on ebay going for 2,600.00 with the reserve not met.

I welcome all comments!

Here are links to pictures of the front and back:

Please let me know if anyone cannot access these links.

Thanks a bunch!!
