Where To Find Silver ?

And what if you don't see a streak, does that mean it's silver ?

does solder streak too? what about aluminum ?

That paper trick seems to be more of a test for tin, than a test for silver

No, it just mean it is not tin (or solder).
Aluminium is way too light.
Silver will be only where you would use it - circuit breakers, contact, relays...
