Maple Leaf Nippon”, dates back to 1891.  Found in green, blue (shown) & magenta.  Van Patten’s #52.  This mark should be 1/4″ high.

While porcelain pieces marked “Nippon” require more money from collectors than younger items marked “Japan,” this change in the marking protocol resulted in a greater interest for people to forge or fake the popular “Nippon” mark on newer porcelain pieces
