An antique Minton plate made in 1856. One plate. This is a very good deal. The rose and green garland, along with the gold-painted rope-braid design around the edge of the plate, enhances its appeal. This item is very valuable. I was told by an antique dealer that the number on the back indicates it's antique Minton. It is marked in red with A2089. Diameter: 22.5 cm As this plate is 169 years old, there is some blackening in one area of the gold paint. Please understand that it is 169 years old. I can't even begin to describe how wonderful this antique Minton plate is.
