Barbara:
From your description it seems that you have an Orleans Dinner Plate. Without a picture, I can’t be 100% positive, but all of the Orleans elements are present. Orleans was one of four patterns in the Provincial 1941 line introduced in 1941 and discontinued in 1950. It was a very popular pattern and reasonably easy to find but much of it is badly stained and crazed. In pristine condition, it is worth $12-20. Terry Moe
