One kilogram of fine silver is worth about $2,082.15 at the current spot price of $64.83 per troy ounce.
Sterling is 92.5% silver, so one kilogram of .925 sterling holds about $1,927.92 of silver at the current spot price. That is the melt value of the metal only — refiners and scrap buyers typically pay 80–95% of melt, and antique or designer pieces can be worth considerably more intact than melted.
Silver purity is stamped as fineness, not karat: .999 is fine silver, .958 is Britannia standard, .925 is sterling, .900 is coin silver (pre-1965 US dimes and quarters) and .800 is a common continental European standard. The table above starts from the pure spot price per kilogram and multiplies by each fineness to get its melt value — there is no premium or discount beyond that percentage.
