Silver in its pure form is relatively soft and malleable and therefore it must be mixed with other metal to make it more durable. There are various combinations such as German Silver, Vermeil, Coin Silver and Sterling Silver. German Silver, also known as nickel silver is a combination of nickel, copper and zinc. Vermeil is sterling silver that is electroplated with at least 100 millionths of an inch of karat gold. Coin silver refers to 90% pure silver and 10% metal alloy. Sterling silver is combination of 92.5% silver and 7.5% copper, which is popularly referred to as .925 silver.
