Are old silver utensils worth anything?
1 Answer

Yes, some old silver utensils may be worth something. Solid silver generally has value on the scrap market. Some utensils may be worth more than the current scrap rates due to their maker, age, type, style and condition. You can have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antiques dealer evaluate your utensils and provide you with an estimate as to how much they are worth. Shop an assortment of silver serveware and kitchen utensils on 1stDibs.
