| - | **Magesilver** is a [[wp>alloy]] of silver (93%), copper (4%), and platinum (2%) along with tin and other impurities. It is one of the most highly prized of the [[lore:noble metals]] by magicians due to its increased hardness over [[lore:truesilver]] with only a small reduction in its magical properties. There are many variations found in the world, most are too brittle for anything but decorations. For those masters capable of truly working this metal wealth abounds. | + | **Magesilver** is a [[wp>alloy]] of [[lore:silver]] (93%), copper (4%), and platinum (2%) along with tin and other impurities.

| A cheaper alloy that is called magesilver, but does not have the same properties for magicians is replacing the platinum with zinc. This alloy can cause problems for magicians mistakenly use it in their craft, but it is difficult to tell the two alloys apart on close inspection. | A cheaper alloy that is called magesilver, but does not have the same properties for magicians is replacing the platinum with zinc.
