The value of old silver-plated utensils varies widely based on factors such as condition, brand, age, and market demand. Generally, they can range from a few dollars for common pieces to several hundred dollars for rare or collectible items. However, their value tends to be lower than that of solid silver items, as silver plating can wear off over time. To determine a specific value, it's often best to consult an appraiser or check recent sales of similar items.

How much is a silver plated dollar worth?
Without the year of manufacture, country, etc this cannot be answered. A hundred year old coin could be worth a decent amount, a newer one produced yesterday would be worth about half a cent. Silver plated items do not have a massive value, because they're only around 0.5%-3% silver, while the other 97% is common metal. Re-ask the question with more information on the coin.

How much is silver plated worth?
Likely not as much as you'd like, but it's not like pure silver that can be sold for the value of silver. But I think it would depend on a number of factors such as what the item is, the quality, how old it is, how much wear is shown, and where and how you're selling it. Even who owned it could affect the value.

If it has a D or P mint mark next to Washington's wig, it's a normal coin that has been plated and is worth only 25 cents. If it has an S mint mark it's a proof coin that was accidentally spent. It may be a silver proof which would at least be worth about 3 bucks for its metal, but again it could be plated. To distinguish a plated coin from a real silver one, compare its weight to a normal quarter. If you can't get hold of an accurate scale you can make an old-fashioned popsicle stick balance. A silver coin will be a bit heavier than a standard copper-nickel one; 6.25 gm for the silver coin and 5.67 for the copper-nickel one.

How do you dissolve silver from silver plated silverware?
I assume you are thinking of taking a bunch of old silver plated items, removing the silver and selling it as sterling. However, it's not feasible to do that. There are acids that will dissolve the silver, but all of them will also dissolve the copper or brass underneath the silver plate, so you will still have to send it to a refiner before you can sell it. The cost of the acid plus the cost of the refiner is approximately 42 times the value of the silver you would obtain, making it economically unfeasible to make a profit from removing the silver from silver plated items.
How much is a 1898 - 1901 gold 1 dollar coin lady head on front eagle on back?
The U.S. stopped making gold $1 coins in 1889. If you have a large Morgan dollar that appears to be gold, it's actually a silver dollar that is either discolored or plated. If it's plated it'll only be worth its silver melt value, around $8 to $10. BTW, the "lady" on old U.S. coins is Miss Liberty!!!

Is a necklace marked 926 Italy worth anything?
Those marks mean that it's .925 (sterling) silver and was made in Italy. The intrinsic value of the silver would depend on weight, but can be less than the market value of the item. For example, a very old piece of silver jewelry from a historic period, or one designed by a famous dead artist, could have value to collectors. A valuation can be done by a qualified appraiser, and requires more information than just the alloy of silver used (the .925, aka sterling).
