It means the jewelry is sterling silver (92.6% pure silver)
No, Tiffany only uses .925 or Sterling Silver. If an item is marked 926, it is not real Tiffany!
I think you are referring to .925.Sterling silver is an alloy of silver containing 92.5% by mass of silver and 7.5% by mass of other metals, usually copper. Sterling silver is most often used for jewelry because of its combination of attractiveness and durability. Acceptable quality marks for sterling silver include: sterling, ster and .925.
I have a gold necklace stamped 926 italy, is this real gold or silver?
most likely it says 925 or .925 denoting the amount of silver in the jewelry. 925 means sterling silver while 999 means fine silver or 99% pure.
As .916 is used in Britain when referring to 22K gold, .926 is the Hallmark used in Italy when referring to the purity of the gold or Karat. And I believe it is yellow gold which also contains copper and silver (conbined account for the remaining 7.4 percent of the karat weight) to give it the yellow coloring.
How much is 926 worth
Those marks mean that it's .925 (sterling) silver and was made in Italy. The intrinsic value of the silver would depend on weight, but can be less than the market value of the item. For example, a very old piece of silver jewelry from a historic period, or one designed by a famous dead artist, could have value to collectors. A valuation can be done by a qualified appraiser, and requires more information than just the alloy of silver used (the .925, aka sterling).
I'm guessing you mean a coin from 1926. You also need to include a denomination.
The hallmark of 926 would indicate 92.6% silver, not gold.
