Persian sterling silver or silver plate

Hi I recently acquired this Persian fruit bowl and can’t make out the markings. Is it silver plated or sterling silver? I found one picture that shows it could be sterling but it is quite heavy. Thanks I’m advance!

The marks on the Persian pieces should be taken with a grain of salt.
I have had Persian pieces with 84 mark , but when tested they turned out to be just under 600/1000.
The best thing is to do the x-ray test

Yes I was thinking the same thing I can take it to someone and have them use that gun thing
