Hi, I just purchased this beautiful silver tray from an antique store, and while researching it, it seems that it may be more valuable than what I paid. However with the stamp only stating FB Rogers Im not sure that it is more valuable. Can someone help?

FB Rogers began manufacturing in 1883, and the 92.5% silver mark (925 or Sterling) became required several years prior, so this actually is silver plate. That said, there are several similars and one exact match on ebay currently listed for more than $50 USD.
If it is not marked 925 or sterling, it is probably just silver plated and not valuable. Any jeweler can test for purity.
This gives you an idea of how much silver and silver plated trays are selling for right now:
