One way to tell the difference between silver and silverplate is to look for a hallmark or stamp that indicates the metal content. Silver will typically be marked with a number such as "925" or "Sterling," indicating that it is real silver, while silverplate will often be marked with terms like "EPNS" (Electro Plated Nickel Silver) or "A1." Additionally, silverplate will generally have a layer of another metal, such as nickel or copper, underneath the thin silver coating.
