If you note carefully most sellers of this coin will not refer to it as PURE SILVER or .999% pure silver, etc. Instead they says things like One Pound Silver Coin, or Silver Coin. If a picture is shown of the back and all you see is ONE POUND or ONE POUND TROY or ONE TROY POUND but no where on the coin does it says FINE SILVER or .999% PURE SILVER.
