Hello, It looks just like the one my buddy found and he had to get his restored because his was only 3/4 of one and after restoration he sold it for $3,000.

Should I attempt to clean this any more. I like the patina that it has, thanks for any suggestions.

Gary,

Have you decided to have the plate repaired or leave it as is?

 

[Gary1963]

I'm researching and learning more about the process.
