You can put it in a dishwasher but you should not. There is a danger than electrolysis will damage it.
no,you should use the designated cleaner for your metal flatware.
Silver flatware may be placed in the dishwasher but care must be taken to make sure that it doesn't come into contact with stainless steel or dishwashing detergent.

The IS on Wm Rogers Silverware stands for International Silver.

try replacements.com or silverpatterns.com Both are companies that sell replacement silverware.
If it is sterling it will be imprinted on the piece. Otherwise it is silver plate. Most Rogers Brothers is silver plate.
Not much. it is a thin layer of silver on top of some alloys that contain little or no silver.
IS stands for International Silver (Company). FB Rogers, Wm Rogers, and Rogers Bros. (or Rogers & Sons) were some of the American silverplate manufacturers that were combined into the International Silver Company in 1898. The IS mark indicates the flatware is silverplate, rather than sterling.
I'll bet it is an "I" and an "S": International Silver bought the rights to use the [Eagle] Wm. Rogers [Star] stamp in 1989, and I have some flatware made in 1938 which has "[Eagle] Wm. Rogers [Star] sectional IS" stamped on the back. ("Sectional" refers to heavier plating on areas receiving heavier wear.) Check http://www.replacements.com/silver/INS.htm#5 for photos of a huge number of silverware patterns - I found mine!
98% probability that it's silver plated, here's how to check: Wm Rogers is an American brand, and all solid silver flatware made in America after 1870 will say ".925" or "Sterling" on it. If you don't see either of these it's silverplated.
The 4009 on a Wm Rogers silver platter means that it is #4409. Wm. Rogers numbered his work. Rogers was a master silversmith in the early to mid 1800s.
what is Wm Rogers 272 platter worth is $ 450
I bought it 16 years ago for 750.00 I would not sell it for under 2000 depending on condition
