Came late to this thread and you're aware that these two plates are rare in the extreme. Also, as you know, I also have both in my collection.

For interest sakes, anyone come across one of these plates before?

"Erich Probst, Mit Hitler in Coburg" / Maker : "Hutschenreuther Selb Bavaria Germany"

The center plate looks like one of the fantasy pieces that popped up in the 90s--they were fairly well painted onto original mess china (which at the time you could barely give away). There were numerous motifs--mostly NSDAP organizational, RPT, etc. 

I know this is an old post, but possibly still of interest.
