[QUOTE="Walkers, post: 2744338, member: 80560"]Silver and gold are (relatively) soft metals and, over time, silver content is lost in circulation. The 10% copper content is there because copper is a harder metal and thus less prone to wear and circulation loss. I have two circ rolls I like to use to illustrate the concept. One roll is AU (unfortunately, I have no Au rolls) and the other roll is "average circulated". The weight of the "average" roll is about 93 percent of the weight of the AU roll.[/QUOTE]
