How to evaluate silver plate v solid silver
I'd have thought whether its magnetic or not really depends on what they put
the plating onto. I've seen brass things silver plated.

I have an item that is silver but would like to determine if it is solid
(doubtful) or just plated.
From what I can gather solid has a hallmark which this hasnt.
Plated will attract a magnet which this doesnt.
It was not made for public sale so maybe got under the radar in some way.
Any thoughts?
