sTERLING-Irs MEANING:

Genuine, pure. as belonging to or relating to British coinage, now chiefly applied to the lawful money of England, where it is at pres ent illegal to stamp an article sterling that is not of the quality of their coin, nine hundred and twenty five one-thousandths pure silver. Numerous articles are being made in this country of base metal (mostly lead) with . coating of silver on tho outside and stamped sterling. The result Is misleading, as it does not imply the standard required by British law or the intent of the American silver smiths who first used the word in connection with their wares to indicate that they were nine hundred and twenty-five one-thou- sandths pure silver. or the quality of British sterling.
