Scrapfren, my plate showed up in the mailbox today! Went to check on dem hallmarks, and everything is checking out, as i expected it's indeed from 1789, so the last year for those types of marks. Made this on paint.
Sadly the silversmith mark is half gone and it's a real pain to find out who made it.

Otherwise the plate isn't as large as i thought it would be. I'd say it's about the size of a modern plate, maybe 5-10% larger than the ones i use at home (but probably 50% smaller than US standards? jk). But it's real THICC, so no wonder it's so heavy (a little over 25oz).
The bowl have knives' micro scratches from normal use, but nothing too dramatic (none you can feel passing your finger through).

I'll post more pics later on, but i need to clean it first, it came up greasy and with a faint smell of hobo's piss... No Bueno.
