800 silver contains 80% pure silver and is the most common fineness for cutlery, tableware and older jewellery. It carries the 800 mark and is bought by weight at the current silver price.
It is important to distinguish it from silver-plated cutlery. Marks such as 90 or 100 refer to a thin silver coating with little material value, rather than fineness. We sort it for you free of charge and give an honest assessment.

Guides
Inherited cutlery and silver tableware often spend years in a cupboard. Find out what 800 silver is worth, how to distinguish it from silver-plated cutlery and how selling in Nordhorn works.
The value of 800 silver is the current silver price per gram multiplied by a fineness of 0.800. As cutlery and tableware are often quite heavy, the total can quickly become attractive. Estimate it in advance with our silver calculator.
We explain higher silver finenesses on the page about 925 sterling silver.
The key distinction: solid 800 silver carries the 800 hallmark, often with a crescent and crown. Silver-plated cutlery instead shows numbers such as 90 or 100, which specify the plating rather than fineness. Plated items have only a very thin silver layer and therefore little material value.
You can find a detailed guide on our page about selling silver cutlery and in the glossary entry on silver tableware.
