Don't throw your old silverware! You can sell silver for cash online

After reading a few of our blogposts, well, actually after reading all of our blogposts, we noticed that we only talk about gold, gold and gold. But there’s another precious metal which we love and appreciate and it’s even a part of our company’s name: Silver.

Take a close look at your jewelry or silverware. It probably says Starling Silver, right? Starling silver is an alloy of silver. Starling silver contains 92.5% silver and 7.5% of copper or other metals. Adding a small amount of copper to silver, gives the precious metal strength and functionality, while maintaining silver’s natural beauty.

If your silver jewelry reads .999 Silver then you have fine silver in your hands. Fine silver is 99.9% silver, therefore it's called .999 and it has a wide range of design versatility. Jewelry made of Sterling Silver is sometimes plated with .999 fine silver and get a shiny look.

Although silver prices are lower than gold’s, the metal is still quite valuable and fashionable and you can sell silver for cash online.
