Hi, Rogers Bros 1847 Eternally Yours is silver plate.
I have the same set...it is silverplated.
A silverplated tray is only worth about $25.00.
Silver plated!
98% probability that it's silver plated, here's how to check: Wm Rogers is an American brand, and all solid silver flatware made in America after 1870 will say ".925" or "Sterling" on it. If you don't see either of these it's silverplated.
Well, honey, that marking indicates your piece was made by the Wm. Rogers Manufacturing Company. The "bird and star" mark, along with the numbers "963," suggests it's silver-plated. So, no, it's not solid silver, but it's still a cute little find!
It is called silver or silver year.

Silver is the 25th anniversary.
Your Silver anniversary is 25th. Your Golden anniversary is 50th.
The 25th anniversary is traditionally the silver anniversary, so a silver watch would be a great gift for that occasion.
25 years
Silverplated ware is marked "silverplate" or "plate". 985 indicates a high purity solid silver alloy.
