It has no value, unfortunately. EPNS stands for Electro-Plated Nickel Silver. It has no silver content and if in rough condition, it's going to have no value as a piece either. Sorry!


Does silver plated have any value?

First of all, theres no such thing as "silver plated sterling". Sterling is 92.5% silver, anything plated is just plated.
