What is platinum overlay?

Platinum overlay is similar to Rhodium plating, it is just an extremely thin layer of platinum meant to enhance the silver or base metal content.

Side Note: I find the whole " platinum overlay" marketing trend to be hyperbole, considering Rhodium is cheaper and most all genuine platinum jewelry is coated with rhodium to bring out luster.
