The idea of using the number 825 on jewelry is that is a grade of silver. Silver that is marked with the number 825 is a lower grade of silver that is not worth very much money.
It is silver but made for a European market. It is 825/1000 parts silver compared to 925/1000 for sterling silver in the US.
how is silver plated silver worth now
Is English silver worth the same as sterling silver
it is the percentage out of 1000 that it is silver. so it is 825/1000 silver. I'm pretty sure. hope this helps.
825 silver is a lower grade silver generally from the continent. Very common but unfortunately not worth very much. There are lots of good quality antiques our there which if they were sterling ie 925 they would be worth many times the amount of the poorer quality silver. The workmanship and detail is just as good but the manufacture price was lower. Regarding the jewelry, if it's new not worth a dickie bird. If it's old worth far less than it should be.
That probably means it is the 825 th copy if it is somethin like a store bought necklace. If it is gold, iit means it is fake. ---------------------------------------- Most likely it is .825 grade silver if this ring is silver coloured . Still silver but lower grade than .825 sterling
I have several forks that have Townley's Silver Alloy stampen on them are they worth anything?
Maby depends on what is it that i silver.
Yep, they are worth at least $5 for their silver content.
the percentage of metal it is, if its silver its 82.5% silver
Well. 825 stamp on jewelry it is silver alloys; like 725 or 925 stamp is the same silver alloys. Sincerely: L.L.E.P.
