My parents have a cake plate that has been handed down through generations and we are trying to find out its origins. The plate is khaki-colored with a raised white scene, has a base plate and a lid, and is marked with a * on the bottom. We believe it might be related to Minton due to the cypher used in 1842, but someone local suggested it could be an 1870 Dudson cheese bowl. Can you help identify it?

I have a ladies' watch from 1910, an Elgin numbered (###) ###-####, which was my grandmother's. It was given to her by my grandfather in 1910. It is small, opens from the front and back, and appears to be in good condition. I just received it and haven't checked if it runs. What is the value of this watch and how can I determine its condition and authenticity?
