    Old enough for what? To be vintage?

    Can you ask for more pictures? I’ve circled one dent, not sure if any others.....I’d ask for pics of the marks as well....

    There is a pretty, shiny silver-plated service with a tray in addition to these pieces for $10 at the resale shop near me. It has gold plated interiors. I can take pictures if you want a nice plated set.

    It’s obviously not that old. Plus with the dent. She was selling it for $15.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    If you want a nice, undented older set, it sounds like you might do better elsewhere.
