The value of nickel silver cutlery can vary depending on the age, condition, and brand. Generally, nickel silver cutlery is not very valuable compared to silver or sterling silver cutlery.

It isn't silver. Nickel "silver" refers to an alloy of copper with nickel and zinc to make it look like silver but it really contains no silver at all.

That was a transitional year for the coin's composition. If you have a silver quarter, it's worth up to about $4. If you have one made of nickel, it's worth face value only. A coin made of silver will not be attracted to a magnet, but the nickel ones will stick.
The 1968 dollar is 100% nickel. 1967 was the last year that the canada used silver for their coins.
If you mean a Jefferson nickel dated 1942-1945 with very large mintmarks on the reverse, the silver value is about $1.00. They are 35% silver.
The value is 5 cents and it has no silver in it.
Any Canadian dime dated 1967 or earlier is silver. Then some in 1968 were 50% silver, others were pure nickel. The nickel ones are magnetic.
