The word "plate" is the answer. Community Plate is silver plated and has no silver value but many of the patterns have a collectible value. There is a link in the related links with a list of some of the more popuular Community patterns with links to replacement values.
Absolutly NOTHING. I just gave away a 12 peice set of plated silverware. The silver shop was not interested.

Community Silver is a brand of silverware that was manufactured several years ago. Products stamped with Community Silver are considered antique.
Holmes and Edwards silverware is not made of solid silver but rather is typically silver-plated. The company was known for producing high-quality silver-plated flatware, often made of stainless steel with a thin layer of silver. While it may have the appearance of real silver, it does not have the same intrinsic value as solid silver items.
