I purchased this piece of nippon today at a local flea market for $3. I can't find the exact pattern or age of the piece. The mark is on the piece is a maple leaf with nippon written underneath and hand painted written next to it.

Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

All pieces marked with the word "Nippon" date from 1891-1921.

I wonder if it is a Cherry Blossom mark rather than a maple leaf?

In 1924 a mark know as the "Cherry Blossom", in the shape of five "M" was sub-contracted by the Nippon Toki Kasha Company (Noritake Company) to independent companies making porcelain for export the USA Market. I have here collected a number of these and similar marks with the likelihood of a relation to the Noritake sales organization, the US market and a possibly date to the mid 1920s.
