Pathfinder 1E Silver weapon stats?

[Puxido]

I know there's alchemical silver weapons in the ultimate equipment guide, but I was wondering what stats would be for pure silver weapons. I don't see them in the book, and I would normally just give them Golds stats, but I'm afraid I could be horribly wrong on that account, would anyone know a better way to work it? Possibly 3rd party info, homebrews, or a dnd/pathfinder source I've missed?

I already know about Alchemical silver, but I'm not talking about Alchemical silver, I'm talking about real silver. How should I treat a pure silver weapon?

I would suggest treating it as alchemical silver. Aside from being easier than trying to come up with different stats, I suspect silver would perform even worse by comparison. When the path of least resistance is more attractive in general, might as well take it.

I'll keep that in consideration, but I would rather have a separate material for silver alltogether, to you have a link to a homebrew or 3rd party reference?

I'm no metallurgist, but based on these two links I found...

...pure silver weapons would be just about useless, and (if you have stats for gold weapons) they'd be only slightly better than gold ones. Hope that helps.

I guess I'll treat them as gold weapons.

accidentally double posted, sorry.

Treat it as a steel weapon with hardness 6 that take damage equal to the amount it deals each time it is used to attack a corporeal foe. A blade made from mundane silver is a decoration, not a weapon.

Don't worry, there IS another option in pathfinder.

"Mithral weapons count as silver for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction."
