No. Sterling is often alloyed with metals like zinc and nickel. If it's alloyed with rhodium or something you're not allergic to, then you can wear it. I can't wear all sterling, especially during the summer when I sweat.

A tray I have is non-magnetic which makes me think it is sterling silver. How do you determine if something is silver plated or sterling silver?

In the US, sterling silver will ALWAYS be hallmarked with the word "sterling" or "925." Silver plated will never be hallmarked. Anything plated with a precious metal, no matter how thick the plating, will never be hallmarked.Neither sterling nor silverplate is magnetic, unless the plating is over a steel or iron core, which is rarely the case.

Are 1977 New Zealand One Dollar coins 925 silver?

The large non-circulating New Zealand One Dollar coins have been minted in most years since 1967 as a cupro-nickel coin for the collector market. In most years they were minted since 1974, they were also minted as sterling silver (92.5% silver) coin. Proof coins are sold in a protective packaging which should indicate what the coin is made from, particularly if it is made from a precious metal. The 1977 New Zealand large One Dollar coin (Waitangi Day) was minted in both cupro-nickel and sterling silver.


Is it typical that diamonds be set in a sterling ring?

No. Gold is much more typical. but of course sterling silver is cheaper than gold, and a non discerning eye would probably not know it different from white gold, so when a ring is meant to be cost effective, sterling silver is sometimes used instead of gold. yes i have seen many rings with silver instead of gold. for a decent discount.
