These plates are part of a French and German service ordered by Friedrich Karl von Hardenberg (1696-1763). A Hanoverian courtier, he was appointed in 1741 head of the royal gardens and building department in Hanover. The service included Parisian made silver and additions were ordered during his lifetime and later by his sister-in-law in Augsburg and Hanover. The service was sold in March 1779 to the court for 7,471 reichstaler, 4 groschen, 5 pfennig. As Seelig discusses in his 2010 and 2012 articles 'The King George III Silver Service...', the plates are not marked with the Augsburg town mark but are engraved with '14 Lotig' denoting a fineness of 87.5%.
