Any information on a miniature (dollhouse) metal plate

It’s one of 12 aluminum-like plates in a wooden display case. It measures about 1 1/8 inches long, and the back has a mark but it’s hard to read, looks like © f GI. The pictures show the back side. Thank you in advance for any info.

The 1st time I read it I thought it was f 81, then it was f BI. I’ll try to get a clearer picture and post it later.

Have you tried the pencil and paper rub trick maybe you could read it better.

It looks like it could be a Franklin Mint miniature. Could be an “81” for the date. Is the display case wooden?

I found some online similar to these, but not the exact one. The were 2 inches diameter, and round shape. No info on mark.

It took me forever to find my Franklin Mint miniature vases and bowls, but eventually found most of them. It would be worth looking.
