I get a lot of silver plated Flat ware but IDK if its something boardsort, the talk in the other post spoke of it being copper/brass that's plated but all the silver plate I find is not brass or if it is brass is very high zinc content brass. Sorry for the crappy photos, my phone is old and I had a hard time getting it to focus. I can tell it has a thick silver plating, does the base mete matter at all? most everything I get is from WM Rogers and I know Rogers mostly made silver plate, just wanted to make sure it counts as silver plated if its not yellow brass or copper under neath

That’s actually very incorrect. Most of the women on my mother’s side have collected this brand back to the early years.

Their sterling silver is marked as 925 always
Their plate is clearly marked as plate

If it says silver or is missing the silver or the above marks, it’s coin silver. The alloy varies by set buts it’s between 45 and 60 percent silver.
