Looking for any info on this collectors plate my aunt passed away and left quite a bit of stuff this is one of many unique items i found, FYI she was a yard sale fanatic wouldn't be surprised if this came from one. It appears to be hand painted, also because of the stamp on the back I think it might be asian made in the 70's??? Oo and should it have those holes like in the leaves?? Ty. ??
This might help.

Macau porcelain
This porcelain base with its various marks and stickers shows how porcelain from China got its enamel decoration added in Macau.
Marks on 20th century 'Macau' porcelain
“Macau comprises a small, narrow peninsula projecting from the mainland province of Guangdong and the two islands of Taipa and Coloane. Extending up a hillside is the city of Macau, which occupies almost the entire peninsula. The name Macau, or Macau (Pinyin: Aomen; Wade-Giles: Ao-men), is derived from the Chinese Ama-gao or 'Bay of Ama', the patron goddess of sailors.”
Pretty Asian pattern, the leaves look like ginkgo
