is this plaque a real old meissen 1720s or not?

not real, one of the most faked marks out there and impossible to find a real one in the open market. besides, meissen didn't do this type of work in the augustus rex period.

The problem is that this item is not expensive, around $100,what is the purpose of counterfeiting?I bought it because the painting is good, of course, if it is Meissen,that is better

"around $100,what is the purpose of counterfeiting?"

Not a valid logic. If a forger has the skills but only one plate of beans to feed his family, I can think of a hundred reasons.

yeah, real meissen portrait plaques can be very expensive.
