Plating or full silver?
In recent years, silver plating has entered more strongly, so also in crowns for Torah scrolls we have a nice selection of models Crowns for Torah scrolls are silver plated, whose external appearance is exactly the same asCrowns for Torah scrolls made of solid silver,
The base of the plated crown is copper, its specific gravity is the same as that of silver, the advantage of silver plating is the cheap price and the disadvantage that it is not full silver in terms of prestige and also that in case of a strong fall / scratch the silver plating will peel off,
Not so with solid silver, even a scratch will leave pure silver and not copper. Still, the difference in the result is not so dramatic, so the consideration is mainly economic.
