Hi Guys, I have been offered this one for sale and I am considering buying it...but since I have never seen one of these plates for sale before, I have absolutely no idea on what would be a sensible price to offer the seller????? has anyone ever seen one of these types of plates for sale before and considering the condition on this one what do you think would be a sensible price to pay in today's money??? any help, suggestions or opinions are more than welcome and I thank you in advance for such...Cheers, Torsten.

Hi Torsten, one of these came up for discussion here:

As usual no idea on value, sorry.

Cheers, Ade.

Hi Ade, thank again for your help... still question of appropriate value remains... Cheers, Torsten.

The value of an undamaged and minty plate would be 4-500.00, being that it is a common piece and the crack and chip are there it basically hammers the value down considerably. Maybe 150.00 if you can live with the piece in that condition.

yes, my own feeling would be at around US$100 in this condition...but like I say I have nothing to compare it with, as I have never seen one being sold anywhere??...thank you for your reply... Cheers, Torsten.
