Silver price in Alexandria vs the national average
Silver prices in Alexandria follow the national rate, because the metal is priced globally and converted into EGP — today around ج.م117.07 per gram for .999 fine and ج.م108.40 for .925 sterling. What varies between Alexandria and other cities is the making charge on jewellery and small differences in dealer margin, not the underlying metal price. So a shop that looks "cheaper" usually has lower making charges or stronger competition rather than a different silver rate.

Making charges on silver in Alexandria
Making charges on silver jewellery in Alexandria are typically a higher percentage of value than on gold, because the metal itself is cheaper while the craftsmanship costs are similar.

Ask whether the charge is a percentage or a flat per-gram rate, and whether it is negotiable — on detailed pieces there is often room to bargain.
How to verify silver purity in Alexandria
Before paying in Alexandria, confirm the purity. Look for a "925" or "Sterling" stamp on jewellery, or "999" on fine silver, and ask for the purity in writing on your bill. Simple checks help: genuine silver is only weakly affected by a magnet, and it tarnishes rather than rusting over time. For valuable purchases, buy from reputable dealers and keep the stamped, documented bill — it protects you when you resell.
