Description

My Mom bought this plate at an auction and when looking through her Fenton book,  we noticed one just like it for $2,200. We started looking on Ebay and see them anywhere from $35 & up. How do we tell the difference between the "cheaper" plate & the plate worth the large amount of money?

 Thanks
