Silver plate refers to a layer of silver that is applied over a base metal, typically through processes like electroplating. While it contains a thin layer of silver, the underlying metal is not silver, so the actual silver content is minimal. The value and quality of silver plate items depend on the thickness of the silver layer and the base material used.
