Nein, versilbert.

Die Punze EP bedeutet electroplated.

Die Buchstabenfolge EP weist auf eine galvanische Versilberung (electroplated) hin.

Ich kann Dir auch den Silberschmied/Silbermanufaktur verraten:

Die Initialen J.E. & S und S stehen für Joseph Elliot & Sons, Sheffield, aktiv von 1878 bis ca.1972.

Hier bedankt man sich normalerweise.
