I think I found my first silver at the thrift store

[Racso]

I stopped at two stores today and didn’t find anything other then this piece. There’s no marking anywhere and tried a few test like putting ice on it and acid test. The acid test is the one on the right. Hopefully someone can confirm whether it’s silver or not. Thanks for the help

If it’s sterling it’s usually stamped sterling.

If using 18K acid, the scratch will turn a very light blue to white.

The silver solution seems to say yes. But the piece looks like silver plate to me. Scratch the actual piece and apply the acid directly to it. There is no risk in losing resale value on that particular item.

It's likely not stamped because it's the top of a covered dish. The missing bottom dish is where the marks would be found I believe.

Visually it looks plated but there are some Indian silver serving dishes that could be sterling
