You can tell if silver is real by looking for markings like "925" or "sterling" which indicate it is sterling silver. You can also test it with a magnet (silver is not magnetic) or perform a nitric acid test (real silver doesn't react with it). Additionally, genuine silver tends to tarnish over time, while fake silver will not.
You can check if your necklace is real silver by looking for hallmarks or stamps that indicate the metal content (e.g. "925" or "sterling"). You can also perform a magnet test - if the necklace is attracted to the magnet, it's not real silver.

An easy way to tell if the Sterling Silver is real is by putting a magnet to it. If the magnet attracted to it, it isn't real. Don't rely on just a stamp, they can still be fakes. My sister works at a pawn shop and you'd be surprised at the lengths people go through to try to get money.
you can tell it's real by the silver. If its real silver it is real. Get it?? I hope that helped you.
International Silver is, as far as I can tell, a brand owned by the Lifetime Sterling company, and is sterling silver, which is real silver but not pure silver.
It will have the words Silver Certificate printed across the top of the bill's front. In most but not all cases, the seal and serial numbers will be printed in blue ink.
Yes ... but it's not a REAL certificate. It's a novelty item that sells for a couple of dollars.

$4 to $15 depending on how worn it is. However, it's not a silver certificate. The red ink and wording at the top of the bill will tell you it's a United States Note. The last $2 silver certificates were dated 1899.
Yes, bills called silver certificates were printed at various times from the 1886 series to the 1957 B series. In fact, every denomination from $1 to $1000 was issued as a silver certificate at one time or another, although during the 20th century only $1, $5, and $10 silver certificates were printed.
