EPNS stands for Electro Plated Nickel Silver - another term for silver plate.
The acronym EPNS stands for electroplated nickel silver. This is commonly seen on silver flatware and serving pieces. It is the most common of all the stamps seen on these items.
EPNS stands for "Electro Plated Nickel Silver," which indicates that the item is made from a base of nickel silver (a copper-nickel-zinc alloy) and coated with a layer of silver through electroplating. This process gives the appearance of solid silver while being more affordable and durable. Items marked EPNS are typically used for various types of cutlery, serving pieces, and decorative objects. While they may resemble sterling silver, they do not have the same intrinsic value.

The term "seranco" on an EPNS (Electro-Plated Nickel Silver) tea set typically refers to a specific brand or manufacturer associated with the production of the tea set. It may indicate a particular style or design attributed to that brand. EPNS itself denotes the composition of the metal used, which is nickel silver plated with a layer of silver to enhance durability and appearance.
EPNS is the abbreviation for Electro Plated Nickel Silver. Sheffield will be the name of the town that it was made in England. I've no idea what 33 means - probably just the manufacturer's identification mark. EPNS has very little value so don't get excited!
