677. "Rising sun" Nippon. This mark is probably related to Noritake. Mark probably in use 1890-1921. http://gotheborg.com/marks/20thcenturyjapan.shtml While hand painted is nice and the piece is old allot of the price that a piece can command is oddly based on a decal or repeated pattern. Somebody seeking a matching piece is often willing to spend more than a person who is simply looking at an old piece. That generalization is a generalization unless of course that two pieces of hand painted pieces are so similar as to match or compliment one another as piece(s.) If you had the entire set and the set was in excellent shape and the serving set count was 12 or 13 then yes.. there would be a premium due to the mark and age. But as a lone piece the price you paid is about right and unless you find a motivated buyer fair value. I think many people who seriously study pottery and porcelain however would state: It is in very high probability early Noritake and that very few full complete sets exist and that matching pieces such as this difficult and that it is a "complimentary piece" to similar patters.
