I think that with the same name on the front of one of the pieces ( that is the Cupid figure as that is the only one it could have gone onto ) of the phalera and the dish having the exact same name my in fact have some kind of association, and where Maxfield as you say makes the point that dishes are evident from the republic and none from the imperial period this particular dish shows it may well be the a good reference to say it could indeed be of imperial period.
