No. Gold is much more typical. but of course sterling silver is cheaper than gold, and a non discerning eye would probably not know it different from white gold, so when a ring is meant to be cost effective, sterling silver is sometimes used instead of gold. yes i have seen many rings with silver instead of gold. for a decent discount.
How can you tell if something is real sterling silver?
Sterling silver is stamped "sterling" or "925". Other metals may say "nickel free," "stainless," "surgical steel," "silver plated," "WGF" (white gold filled), "nickel silver," "Peruvian silver," "German silver," "Tibetan silver," "Bali Silver," and a number of other things, but NOT sterling or 925. That's the key.
