The Rogers Bros. silverware is silver plated flatware. IS means your set was made after Rogers Bros. was acquired by International Silver Company, around 1898.

Plated.

1847 is the year Rogers Bros. was founded and is part their hallmark; it is not the year your flatware was manufactured. The IS (International Silver) stamp indicates you have silver plated flatware manufactured after 1898.

Silverplate has no scrap value.

Rogers made lots of silver plated items during the 20th century and most are not very valuable. They also made some sterling silver items, and these are more valuable. If your salt dip set is sterling silver, it will be marked clearly with the word Sterling. If this word is not on the salt dip, the spoon and anything else, it is silver plated.
