The '''Brass Plaque''' is an item in ''[[Mario is Missing!]]'' It is the inscription facing the {{wp|Acropolis}} on [[Hadrian's Arch]] (although despite what its images depict, it is carved directly onto the monument and not on a separate plaque<ref>Nefasdicere. "J. Matthew Harrington, Personal Digital Image." ''Wikimedia Commons'', Wikimedia Foundation, 4 Mar. 2007, commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Arch-of-Hadrian-5.jpg. Retrieved February 7, 2018.</ref>). It is stolen by some [[Koopa Troopa]]s when they invade [[Athens]]; this causes the arch to close down. The Plaque is later retrieved by [[Luigi]] after he takes it from a Koopa Troopa walking around the city, which is then shown to various Athenian citizens. Everyone tells him various facts about Hadrian's Arch, such as how it separated Athens and Hadrianopolis (although no actual proof of two divided cities has been found<ref>Taliaferro, Mary.

Eventually, Luigi gathers enough information that he is able to return the Plaque to the Arch's information booth, and is rewarded $1350
