L.E. Smith did do a plate close to yours but the foot has small hobnails  and not as many in the overall  pattern as yours!

One down we know it is not L. E. Smith

These could be for the ice cream bowls to sit (thus dessert plate) in or soup!  But believe the dessert is your bet.

But luncheon plates are typically 7' to 8" and they usually don't have the distinct rim (this style is called a rim plate. 

Not a snack set plate or would have the distinct area to place the cup.

Agree Wendy.  I have looked through all my books and couldn't find this one...but then I don't have the resources like you.

Anchor Hocking? I saw similar plates in green on Google search.

Well I can't seem to find it on google with any of those companies. Wish I had more resources :/

Not sure if I'm going to hold on to them or sell them. I am rather fond of them. Any guesses on a value or time frame when they were made?

Mine is a guess just from what little I know ( glass is not my area) but I would guess mid to late 30`s and as price/value without anything to go with them, under $10. each !!  Knowing maker might change that value but probably not much !!
