Yes it is the old system Wade Giles rather than the new Pin Yin and yes it does say Daoguang.I have serious doubts about the date think it is probably later though it could be right need ssome better close ups and especially the footrim

Thanks for info. I will upload 3 pic of the footrim, maybe you can get closer what time period this stem dish is.

After looking at the footrim(thank you for posting those extra photos) I am more than ever convinced that it is not Daoguang but possibly as late as Guangxu.Aside from that the decoration is on the whole very good but the intensity of colours is one I do tend to associate with Tongzhi or Guangxu.The rock at the bottom is not what I would expect from a Daoguang piece too perfunctory.I would be interested in some other comments hope they are forthcoming.
