Hi,
Welcome to the Forum.
I think your tray is very likely to be made of pewter. The 95 would indicate 95% tin, and the 'E' likely to stand for Etain, the French for Pewter.
Here's a couple of similarly styled markings:
The top example is by the Italian company Val Peltro, the second is unknown to me.
