Ag is going to exist in nature as Ag2--no doubt about it.

The actual reaction with carbonate is

2AgNO3 (silver nitrate) + Na2CO3 (sodium carbonate) = Ag2CO3 (silver carbonate) plus NaNO3.

For some reason you get elemental silver out of this too--which you shouldn't because it's a balanced equation, but Ag2CO3 is yellowish and it's normally got gray flecks in it when you get it.
