How do you find the value of collectible spoons?
Well, it depends on where you got them. Some spoons from the 1500 + are VERY valuable, because they use real silver, not metal. 1900 + I wouldn't depend on the spoons being worth much. Nowadays, most spoons are made in China. I would find the age of the spoons, and range from maybe $50 and up.

How do you know a fork is silver or not?
"Real" silver turns green when it is not washed/cleaned. Here is an expiriment you could do: Take two spoons out of your kitchen. Put the spoons where you know you will not forget where it is. Leave them there and if the spoons have not turned even a little bit green in at least 10-30 days then it is not real silver. (DO NOT LET ANYONE TOUCH THE SPOONS UNTILL YOU FIGURE OUT THE ANSWER!) The green that forms on metal is called verdigris. The metal on which it forms is copper (brass, other alloys). If the spoon turns green, it is definitely not silver. Silver tarnishes, that is, turns brown to black. If it doesn't change color at all, it could be made of one of a multitude of alloys. This was the advantage to "nickel silver" (which contains no silver at all) and "German silver," (no silver, either). They would not tarnish, but kept that nice shine. They were also cheaper to produce, since silver, a precious metal, was left out. Or the spoon could be stainless steel, which is most common in households today.

How do I tell my chain that's marked with CW is silver or gold looks gold but don't see 925 or 14k only CW?
One way to make sure your gold or silver jewelry is real is to place it in a bowl of water. If the jewelry sinks, it is real. If it floats, it is most likely fake. Real silver and gold will not react when placed near a magnet.
