5 Common Questions About Silver Flatware & More at Hilltop Pawn

Most of what people use and refer to as "silverware" isn't actually made of silver at all anymore, at least these days. In the past, real silver flatware was the gold standard, but nowadays, a lot of flatware is made from other metals. Nowadays, a lot of so-called "silverware" is actually made from stainless steel...this is actually the most common. That's because it's more affordable than silver, making flatware less expensive.

This doesn't mean that stainless steel flatware is superior, however. If you prefer the finer things in life and don't mind spending a little more on them, real silver flatware is an excellent option.

If you have older silver flatware that you're thinking about selling, or if you have other silver items that you want to get rid of, you should consider visiting us at Hilltop Pawn, where you can sell your silver quickly and easily -- and for more money.
