International sterling, often referred to as "sterling silver," is a standard for silver that contains 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals, usually copper. The term "sterling" itself denotes this specific purity. However, "silver2480" does not correspond to a recognized standard and may be a term or branding that doesn't indicate actual silver content. Always check for proper hallmarks to confirm the authenticity and purity of silver items.
