Sterling vs. silverplate — the honest test
Only pieces stamped STERLING or 925 are solid silver and carry melt value. Silverplate (stamped EP, EPNS, or "silver on copper") is worth much less — we’ll tell you straight which yours is, free, at the counter. Check the backs of the forks before you drive over.
Bring it in — we test and price it at the counter in front of you, against live market prices. One strong cash offer, paid the same day. The more complete it is (box, papers, accessories, chargers), the more it pays — and the more you bring, the more you get. Not sure it qualifies? Text a photo first: 857-867-6468.
Questions we hear
- How much is a sterling flatware set worth?
- It depends on total weight, pattern, and completeness — a big set can run well into four figures at strong silver prices. Text a photo of the chest and the stamp to 857-867-6468 for a ballpark.
- Do monograms hurt the value?
- For melt-value buying, no — weight is weight. Rare patterns in mint condition can carry a collector premium, and we’ll say so if yours does.
- Will you buy a partial set?
- Yes — partial sets, single settings, and loose serving pieces all get weighed and paid the same way.
