  Value Factors Breakdown

  • Type of Memorabilia: Turn-of-the-century (ca. 1900–1920s) imported German souvenir china—often brought to the US by importers like Wheelock or Jonroth—is highly collectible but widely available. Standard small items like cups or small pin plates typically sell between $10 and $20. 

  • The Molded Design Premium: Because this piece features unusual 3D molded components—specifically the decorative "key to the city" and the dedicated pocket intended to hold a small pocket watch or clock insert—it carries a slight novelty premium over flat trinket dishes. 

  • Condition Notes: The photo shows notable wear, including loss to the gold leaf trim along the edges and the key, as well as minor surface discoloration. Porcelain items command top dollar only when pristine; visible wear will pull the valuation closer to the lower end ($15 to $20).
