Description The plate has Ford circa 1896. It appears to have 22 K gold on it too, although it doesn't specify so. It has a quality control sticker on the back of the frame that says "Bard's" of Medelein, Il. I'm guessing that is where it was distributed from.

<p>Collector&#39;s plates have a terrible record as investments, most seldom even regain their original purchase price thirty years after they were issued. Comparbles to your Ford plate sell for about $30.00.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Lovejoy </p>
