The marking "848" on silver indicates that the metal is composed of 84.8% silver, or 848 parts per thousand. This is a standard used primarily in some European countries, particularly for silver jewelry. The remaining percentage typically consists of other metals, such as copper, which enhance the durability of the silver. This quality is lower than sterling silver, which is 92.5% pure silver.
