Silver
Sandra J Paluzzi
Only sterling silver has a 92.5 concentration of silver. If something is just marked silver, it may very well be silver plated.
I've also seen items listed as being alpaca silver, nickel silver or German silver. None of these items actually contain silver. They are metal alloys of copper and nickel with other alloys.
