Heres what I know, True and the expensive Meissen has the crossed swords. They made beautiful porcelians. Now any factory in Meissen Germany can use the word Meissen on their ware, so with your crown mark it is not the true Meissen but made by another factory in Meissen Germany and I beleive Neu stands for New, this is according to Kovel’s price guide book. Your cup and saucer was made in Germany but I don’t know what company. I would compare it with other neu Meissen cup and saucer that might be on other sites or e-bay to get an idea. Your cup is not a knock off, just not the true Meissen w/ crossed swords.
