We work with a specific group of external suppliers to source predominantly recovered and recycled silver - for 886 by The Royal Mint. All our suppliers undergo due diligence checks in line with The Royal Mint’s Responsible Sourcing principles. Since December 2022, selected 886 pieces, where indicated in the relevant product details, are also made from silver recycled in the UK from disused medical X-rays . Please contact services if you wish to check the metal source for any particular product by emailing customerservice886@royalmint.com
