Commemorative Plates

Franklin Mint and Danbury Mint.
I'm moving home soon and stumbled over over 30 commemorative plates that I bought from these people over 30 years ago. Each is a limited edition with a certificate and, at that time, cost £15/20 each. Promises were made at the time about how these plates could increase in value over time. Now they are virtually worthless. Does anyone else like me feel totally conned and what has become of the two companies?
