If it's just the chest you want to sell you won't get much for it, the chests on their own can sell at auction for less than $50.00

Re: Grammas wedding silver

continuing on from what love joy said, the silverware would go for around 75-85 american dollars at auction due to the silver content. I would suggest finding either a collector or taking it to a smelter and get them melted down and sell the silver. You will probably get more with the price of silver now adays.
