    I came across Argentium while shopping on A and E metals website and become fascinated with the surface chemistry that stops it tarnishing like other silver alloys...
    Does anyone stack this?

    What is the premium like over 999? I don't really care if I get a little tarnishing if it saves me money. Perhaps on a beautiful piece I would but certainly not buying a monster box any time soon.

    Also, I've never heard of it so it could become fairly illiquid come time to sell if people don't knife about it.

    It comes in 935 and 960 so it is even better than Sterling or British bullion standard
