Silver plated antiques and jewelry have little value to collectors, and no scrap value at all. Silver assayers won't take it because the cost of recovering the tiny amount of silver (about .20 mm surface thickness) is more than the value of the metal itself.Standard Exchange policy: "Please note we cannot accept silver plated, gold plated or gold filled items. These items may be beautiful, but they unfortunately do not have any precious metal content to speak of. Even their value as antiques, collectibles, or jewelry is minimal right now due to the economy."
