Does anyone know how to tell the difference between sterling silver &
fine silver?
I have a bunch of sheet & wire that's pretty old, with fine & sterling
silver mixed.
Is there a heating/color change/soldering type trick to tell which is
which?
Much Thanks!
The melting temperature of fine silver is higher and when itīs molten the
cohesion ist also higher.
Sterling silver stays a little bit harder alfter they were both glued.
