    This is about 5 inches tall, seems like many Chinese figures I've seen, but has this mark in English letters on the underside. Not even sure what the letters are. Anyone recognize this? Thanks!

    Gneuhd?
    Googling doesn't bring up anything.

    Looks Chinese.
    Maybe a newer item?

    When first looking I was thinking 1950s, because of the color. I've never seen one marked like that.
    Could it be the name of the figure?

    Cool stamp! Definitely Chinese of course, not seen that mark before ...maybe made for export to Russia? (WAG)

    Nice figurine. I think blooey is on to something with the export mark theory.
