"Hotel" silver is a form of electroplate that was manufactured for use in trains, on ships, in restaurants, and hotels. You can dent a sterling sugar bowl very easily—but a similar piece of hotel silver can be dropped without much harm silver because the underlying base metal is stronger than its silver exterior.
The plate also comes with the "SS" and "Heer Eagle" engraved on the plate post war.
Plate is also marked with the numbers 25 and 33. The first number (25) relates to the density of the silver coating - 25g - while the second number indicates the year of production (1933). 1933 was the year that Hitler was appointed Chancellor of Germany. There is approximately $30.00 worth of silver in this plate.
