Silver is usually combined with other metals or alloys like copper, nickel to ensure that forms of silver like coins or jewellery do not deteriorate over time. As these metals reduce the purity of silver, buyers can perform certain tests to check the purity of the metal and thereby the prices of the same. Such test can be performed on diver in any form and hence buyers can be assured that they are not cheated of their funds.

Some of these tests are very basic and can provide instant results or judgment on purity. The details of the same are mentioned below.

Stink Test

Stink test requires the buyer to check the odor of the metal. Silver has no odor so if the metal to be tested has any odor in it, such metal will not be considered to be pure.
