WM Rogers (eagle and star) IS fork and spoon

Description

I have been looking for silver for my father-in-law and came across this fork and spoon at a flea market.  I tested them with a magnet and rubbed them with a piece of white cloth ( the cloth started turning black) so i assumed they were real silver.  I know that the Rogers silver ware was made by not only him, but many other companies as well and i'm not sure what time period they are.

Unless they are marked "Sterling" they are silver plated, When these were made rogers was part of International Silver, a large conglomerate of silver companies formed at the turn of the 19th century. Values for silverplate currently is in decline, due to a glut in the market and few eager buyers. Values are modest for individaul pieces like this, oftena t auction under $10.00 for the pair.
