<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 1726603, member: 39&quot;]Ag means silver. When it comes to what metals a coin is made from, you will - in descriptions - sometimes see those Latin abbreviations that are also used in the periodic table of elements: Au is gold, Cu is copper, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>And 835 is the silver content - so 83.5 percent of your 50 centimes coin is silver. (The rest is usually copper.) Other &quot;typical&quot; silver contents are 925, 900, 625, and so on.</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
