A silver coin referred to as an "ore" is likely a misunderstanding, as "ore" typically denotes a naturally occurring solid material from which a metal or valuable mineral can be extracted. Silver coins are usually made from refined silver rather than being classified as ore. However, in some contexts, the term "ore" might be used colloquially to refer to silver-containing minerals or the raw material before refinement.
The name of silver ore is typically called "silver ore" or "native silver."
Silver ore is commonly known as argentite or silver sulfide. Other minerals that may contain silver include acanthite, polybasite, and native silver.
