I have yet to find any Alpaca that is sterling. It is made from nickel and other varies metals. Alpaca was made for people in areas that could not afford sterling or gold jewelry.
You can magnet test it......the easiest way to tell. :)

The 925 stamp mean the jewelry made from 92.5 percent silver.
It should be a PL followed by three digits (akin to PL 999). Its meaning is "PlataLey 999" which stands as the amount of pure silver in your jewelry. For example, PL 850 means your jewelry has 85% of pure silver; the rest can be other metals such as zinc, tin or copper.
Sterling silver jewelry and silverware is not alwaysmarked "925". Both silver jewelry and sterlingware can also be marked "Ster", "STER", or "Sterling". Silver jewelry may also be stamped "MEXICO". Sometimes this stamp accompanies another sterling marking; sometimes it is the only marking.You can learn more about other silver markings and gold markings at the link below.
