      Your piece says it is "Silverplate". That is a very, very thin coat of silver over another metal - usually brass or nickel. The photo isn't complete so can't tell what the object is. Silverplate is not "really" silver.

      Thank you very much for your feedback. This is much helpful. The item is a plate, 40cm by 23cm. So it doesn't seem like it id worth 600$?

      I cannot think of any silverplate dish that would bring that kind of money.

      Silverplate is very inexpensive.
