This unusual silver plated Coburg Anniversary Plate surfaced on an American dealers website which has since been sold. This is an unusual plate which might have been sold at the anniversay event. There is no inscription or maker stamp on the front or reverse. There have been instances that collectors have been fooled where old silverwares have been re-used and re-engraved. For this particular piece, as no on hand inspection was carried out, it is hard to ascertain its authenticity, but otherwise a lovely plate. For beginners, stick to textbook examples such as a first pattern Coburg badge, study it carefully before moving on to commemorative pieces.
