HALLMARK QUESTION - SILVER OR STAINLESS STEEL?
3 Answers
I have a Salt & Pepper set which I really don't know if they are Stainless Steel Silver Plate or Silver!! Just by looking at them I would have said Stainless Steel as they appear 'brushed' however they do have what I think is a hallmark and they are VERY heavy so I am a bit stuck!

if it was silver it would have an assay office mark, and a date letter. plus i can see from the photo it is stainless steel.
