SpotIdentifying Silver: A Professional Guide
Sterling Silver (.925)
Genuine sterling silver consists of 92.5% pure silver. It is an investment-grade precious metal that maintains intrinsic market value regardless of condition.
- verified Hallmarks: Look for "925", "Sterling", or the British Lion Passant.
- verified Natural Tarnish: Develops a warm, dark patina over time.
- verified Resonant Sound: Produces a long, high-pitched ring when tapped.
Silver Plate
Silver plating involves a thin layer of silver electroplated over base metals like copper or brass. These items hold aesthetic value but limited metal melt value.
- info Hallmarks: Often marked "EPNS", "Silver on Copper", or "Quadruple Plate".
- info Base Metal Reveal: Often shows "bleeding" where brass or copper shows through.
- info Dull Sound: Produces a short, flat "clunk" when tapped.
