The mark ( you have taken a photo of it upside down  :P ) says Chenghua Period Made but it is much later. These brown etched seal marks became popular during the latter half of the 19th century and are still being " copied ".

Dating these, i'd say early to mid 20th. They're not tat though. Plates which will probably increase in value at some point.

What size is the largest ?
