It is pewter, which here is an alloy containing 98% tin. Found a bunch of items from Germany marked thusly and got excited but it is definitely pewter.
 

Thanks for the info I guess on my end wishful thinking[emoji20]
 

Lol I only know because I found a vendor at the flea market who was selling half a table of the stuff for cheap and thought I might pass out before my phone caught up with me and crushed my dreams of a crazy silver haul.

P.s. it's especially frustrating because many of these items have great lustre like in your pic, which makes them seem that much more promising.
 

That would have fooled me.
 

I try to pay around $1 for every pewter piece I see. I melt pewter into ingots and sell on ebay at about $10 lb.

Hope you are using a WELL ventilated area.
You do not wanna breath the fumes in any way.
