Argentium silver (patented in 1998)[1] is a brand of modern tarnish-resistant silver alloys, containing either 94% or 96% silver. Argentium alloys replace some of the copper in the traditional sterling silver (92.5% silver + 7.5% copper) with the metalloid germanium.[a][1][2]
Both argentium 940 and argentium 960 alloys exceed the standard required for hallmarking as sterling silver, and argentium 960 silver meets the standard for hallmarking as Britannia silver (95.84% silver).
