525 usually= Sterling Silver... 8)
which equates to a minimum of 92.5 % silver

No Sterling Silver is 925 not 525. 525 silver is as expected only 52.5% silver=14K. Not that common over here but more normal on the continent and in the States.
As it's written as a millesimal number and not as 14K I would think it is post 1999.
