it says wb nickel silver 17 on the back of the handle
 
not sure about age, but seems that I have seen that pattern and I think it date to 1940's. Here's a link to a page about nickel-silver so you can read the metal composition of it. It contains no silver except what little may have been used to plate it if it was plated. So, in other words it is basically worthless... Nickel silver - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
 
Sorry that it's not worth much I for some reason I like digging old spoons , Good luck and Good hunting...
 
thanks folks for the info flake finder i love digging old flatware it tells you about the people that lived here
 
it is not silver but it is like 110 years old cool
