- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 15, 2024Yes, some antique silver plate is worth something. However, any value that a piece has usually comes from its rarity rather than from the cost of its materials, because silver plate contains very little pure silver.

The maker, style and type will also impact the potential resale value.
