Silver brings its own set of questions, starting with one we hear often: is this piece actually silver, or just silver-plated? Genuine sterling is stamped with a hallmark, usually .925, meaning 92.5% pure silver bonded with other metals for strength. Plated pieces carry only a thin silver coating over a base metal and, once tested, are worth a fraction of what sterling brings, so checking for that hallmark is always the starting point.
Flatware sets and tea services are some of the most common items we see, often inherited as part of a full set rather than sold piece by piece. These are weighed and tested the same way as jewellery, with the sterling content determining the payout regardless of age or pattern. Royal Canadian Mint coins and other recognized silver bullion are assessed against the current silver spot price rather than face value, since their worth comes from metal content.
Silver payouts differ from gold in one key respect: silver’s spot price is lower per ounce than gold’s, and silver items are typically a lower purity by weight than gold jewellery, so the per-gram numbers you see quoted will naturally look different between the two metals even when both are priced fairly.
