Some full sets are worth quite some money but most of that crap is mostly worth its weight in silver (it's not pure silver) and that's it.
Now here's the kicker: some of these sets have several kilograms of silver in them.
Here'd be the biggest french auction site and full "menagere" can go from 2 K EUR up to 15 K EUR for the rarest and biggest ones:

They're usually listed with the weight of the various pieces.
If it's 750/1000 silver (or whatever: it's not pure silver I think) and there are x kilograms, you can figure out what these are more or less worth.
> The silver was real silver judging by the tarnishing
I wouldn't be so sure... Many other material do look not unlike silver and were precisely used to make it look like they were silver. These aren't worth anything.
