Hi, I wanted to Know if there are any license plate experts around, I was Offered a 1911 porcelain Minnesota plate . Its dark blue and white letter with verticle MINN on left and 1911 On right , It is in very mint condition, I would just buy it to flip on ebay . He wants a pretty penny for it so I just wondered if there is a way to value these old plates. I do know the 1911 plate only had 20,000 made by the state. I would love to hear any plate collector advise before i purchase it. if wondering he wants 500.00 cash . seems extreme ? is there any meat left at that price, Thanks much ahead for any advise

That is cool., I like that photo, I think you should own that plate, make sure you find the auction on ebay, ok

Thanks , sure everything is for sale, I have decided to list on ebay , and is auctioning now, My ebay ID is hertzyinmn2015 - its under signs ,railroad or vehicles. thanks

Hello, all I really would like some expertise on this old porcelain plate as I do not sell it to cheap. It measures just shy of 3 1/4 " x 6 3/4" .it has a slight concave on reverse and is hallmarked GLADIATOR . it weighs about a half pound and is porcelain on iron type plate. I have posted on collectors weekly and a couple folks say possibly was a bmw or volkswagon item, as the Germans had labor forces to work on these vehicles. well I really hope someone will Identify this and its use , Oh and its states " to promote public health we strongly request not to spit in the wagon," Thanks ahead if any response ,

thanks all for the help, That was great much appreciated . I believe my questions are answered !!
