what is the value of a Wm Rogers Silver Bowl? Paul Revere Reproduction
What is the value of a Silver Platter / WM Rogers 291 With Eagle Star Perfect condition.
The "VHS" stamp on an international sterling tray typically indicates the manufacturer or designer of the piece. In this case, it refers to the company Van Horne Silver, which is known for producing high-quality silverware and trays. The "sterling" designation signifies that the tray is made from sterling silver, which contains at least 92.5% pure silver. Collectors often seek out such pieces for their craftsmanship and historical value.
If the item is solid silver, it will have identifiable silver hallmarks stamped into the metal. You could also buy a small kit designed to detect plated items from solid silver.
First.. are you sure it is Sterling? Onieda made a lot of "silver plated" items, which currently have zero value. The word "STERLING" needs to be stamped on the tray in order for it to be sterling and worth money.
The value of a silver tray stamped EPC 1097X can vary based on factors such as its size, condition, and market demand for silver items. The "EPC" stamp typically indicates that it is made by the E.P. Co., which may suggest it is electroplated rather than solid silver, affecting its value. Generally, electroplated items are worth less than solid silver, often ranging from $20 to $100. For a precise appraisal, consulting a professional or checking recent sales of similar items would be advisable.
First and most important is the word "STERLING" also stamped on that tray? If not, it is silver plated and would have zero value unfortunately. If it IS marked sterling, then you will need to weigh it. Once you have the weight, you can go to a sterling silver specialist like the Silver and Gold Exchange. If you decide to sell to them, they will pay for the shipping and insurance. Good Luck!
