The exquisite antique plate, marked EPNS (Electro Plate Nickel Silver) 799, has the most fantastic detail...yes, it old and has some wear issues, put the detail MORE than makes up for it!  It is heavily engraved with small pierced accents and measures 10" in diameter...it looks as if you could put a small bowl in the center, such as a floral arrangement, appetizer spreads etc.  There is some wear in the center part and some surface scratches appropriate to it's age, and it looks to be a tiny bit bent, but I'd use it in a heart beat!  The patina is wonderful and it polished up nicely!
