TJ, I interpret John's post to mean a 36 square inch plate of 99.99% pure silver. (Maybe a 6 x 6 inch piece of sheet stock?) So I wouldn't worry about him if I were you. <grin>
You're correct, of course, not to use "silver plate" -- ie something that has been *plated* with silver. That's almost always not a pure alloy, but rather Sterling or similar, that has significant nickel or other components that are toxic. Plus, there's the chance of wearing through to the base-metal, which could be anything... So, use a plate of pure silver if you want, but not something that's *plated* with silver! <smile> Be well, Mike D. > Interesting -- but I'm a little hesitant to use silver plate instead of > pure silver.
