I believe that I saw this exact item earlier on ebay; you don't have
the correct dates or names on this papacy (and didn't in your auction
title and description) and if I did see/remember your specific
auction, well, your statement that a "family member bought it on a
trip to Rome in 1965" doesn't jive.
Paul VI was Pope from late (October?) 1963 until August 1978; then
John Paul I served for 33 days; then John Paul II was elected in
September 1978 and reigned until April 2005.
Unless one has a reference book that clearly backs you up, the word
"silver" should be used very cautiously when dealing with items
related to the Vatican City.

described above:
