Subject:VOC Charger
Posted By: Georgi Fri, Aug 22, 2014 IP: 68.10.98.83 The piece was dirty as hell and even after cleaning it is still brownish.I have doubts that it is an authentic piece but would like to hear more opinions. |

Posted By: Jim Fri, Aug 22, 2014 This is the mark of the Dutch East India Company, the Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie, 1602-1798. It is found on the reverse of much Dutch East Indies coinage during the period. Regards. Jim |

Posted By: adam Fri, Aug 22, 2014 I agree, the staining and craquelure are very contrived and although they have made attempts to copy a design, the whole thing lacks authenticity...Good study piece though |

Posted By: plasticman Tue, Aug 26, 2014 Made in replica of an old plate.Appears to not even be porcelain,but some sort of stoneware with a pseudo cracklure glaze. Most authentic plates also have blue enamel designs on the back rim. |
