I was hoping some kind person could help me. I have this tray, it probably is not worth much, but I can only hope lol. I have used a magnet on it and it does not stick. I have taken a picture of the stamp and the tray.

The silver content will be low as the marking shows:
Plateado - which means silver-plate in Spanish.
Nice looking tray - hope it is valuable.
If no pull at all from a magnet it is nickel plated with silver. Or some other non magnetic material. If copper plated with silver you will feel a small pull from the magnet .
The only way to know for sure is the nitric acid test, which you should not do at home. A file mark is made in an inconspicuous spot.
The one with the picture and stamp. It says Mexico. "Plateado" is Spanish for plated.
yes, silver plated
still nice tray and for a couple dollars you can buy a silver polishing product that makes it shine and then at least $10 at a yard sale
