[QUOTE="Miscstuff, post: 256981, member: 1331"]I've got this daggy old plate with a massive chip/crack in it and a curious makers stamp on the back. The stamp is F.M. &Co which I believe is Francis Morley of Shelton, England and the “&Co” is Samuel Ashbury of Philadelphia. The curious part is the eagle with wings spread on top of a scroll which suggests American made or at least designed. I'm not sure if this was an American only issue plate or they shared all designs. The pattern seems to be called “Chantilly” but my searching so far has not yielded anything. OK it's not so daggy but is this an American plate??? Dimensions 27cm Round 3.5cm High 0.68Kg.
