The picture is a bit dark but the plate looks like a Centennial with the blue band around the edge. She looks to be in good cosmetic condition. I love my Centennial, have had it since 1959 and it still runs like a charm. Enjoy sewing on her.

After enlarging your picture I was able to see that your banding is black, not blue. The black band was introduced after 1951. Only the Centennial has a blue band and it says A Century of Sewing. Only 40,000 were made of this limited edition.
