[QUOTE="Ownedbybear, post: 1034666, member: 29"]Neigh. Ahem. Without looking at the back, I was pretty sure this was 19th C. Yes, I know there's fake crazing being done on stuff, but this has that nice slightly faded look of age and wear that really isn't fakeable. The impressed marks would be far more precise and deliberate on a modern lookalike, too. As others have rightly said, registry marks are date of first patent, so generally not helpful with manufacture date. However, the diamond really wasn't used on stuff after the Rd number usage came in: designs got re-registered, so the 1868 to 1883 dating is about right. Not Royal, that came later. A nice late 19th C Doulton Burslem polychrome hand embellished transferware plate. I'd like to see the others![/QUOTE]
