but you couldn't see it if you only had the bottom plated...
Of course you can extend my idea, and silver-plate the whole block: there's your "Ooooh and Aaaah" factor!
Just a side note on what gmat said: I don't think that there's really any kind of calculation required, because it would only show that the best thickness for silver to be applied, would be the thickness of the baseplate...
As a fancy block idea, it might be possible to slip a silver slab, the size of the CPU core, into the baseplate of a copper block...
