    I can't quite make them out, but the impressed numbers on either side of the anchor give you the last two digits of the year date. That's the mark used till about 1860.

    I think they are 3 and 6.

    So 1836?

    I don't care what the value is, but I'm just happy to have found this 160 years old plate + wall-hanging mechanism for 6$

    yup 1800! Davenport went away with the anchor stamp approaching the 1900's now its just a boring blue "Davenport" lol

    Something I might add is that wow I cant believe this plate is in that good of condition! especially seeing how this one survived! http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/301585146500?lpid=82&chn=ps&ul_noapp=true

    it is stained and now marks except ha hint of blue on the back.
    Awesome find!
