Silvered Cup

The Silvered Cup is a type of Artefact in Sea of Thieves. Artefacts are trinkets made out of various precious metals and adorned with valuable jewels. As such they are coveted by the Gold Hoarders who are willing to buy them for Gold at any Outpost. Selling Artefacts also increases the Player's Reputation with the Company.

Where to find

Silvered Cups can be found from the following sources:

Chance to find inside Collector's Chests dug up from Treasure Maps received from Quests or Voyages
Chance to be dropped by Gold Hoarder Skeletons during Wayfinder Voyages
Chance to find inside Gold Hoarder Treasure Vaults
Chance to find beached above or below the shorelines of Islands, excluding Outposts, Seaposts and Forts
Chance to find inside closed Collector's Chests
Chance to find among Barrels of Plenty floating on the open Seas
Chance to find on Skeleton Ships
Chance to find inside completed Skeleton Fort Vaults
Possible reward for defeating a Kraken tentacle

The Servant of the Flame at The Reaper’s Hideout for Gold and Reaper's Bones Reputation and Emissary Value (if sailing as a Reaper's Bones Emissary)

The following is the reward chart for the sold Trinket:

Notes

Artefact values are based on their material. Silvered Cups belong in the second value tier of "Silver".
Picking up and placing Artefacts on a Ship for the first time gives Emissary Grade Reputation to Trading Company Emissaries representing the Gold Hoarders or Reaper's Bones.
All Artefacts can be placed inside any Container Chests. These Chests hide their Glint and allow Players to carry up to three small Treasure items.
This Artefact emits a Golden Glint from a distance.
Artefacts can be caught with a Harpoon.
