In May 2015 Ebay seller schilderstadl from Germany was offering this Afghanistan 1950s commercial plate.
It is not genuine and is another of his poor quality reproductions that was cast specially and well after the 1950s. He is selling it as used rather than being honest and saying it is a reproduction.. Both the genuine versions of this plate are in collections.Â
You can see from the holes in it that it has never been used.
Be very careful of plates that look too good to be true or look unused. If you do not know exactly what you are looking at, don’t buy it. There is a good chance you will be sold scrap aluminium and not a genuine plate at all.
