  It’s actually far easier to mould than silver – it’s quite soft in comparison.
  It oxidises (reacts with air) really easily, so it’s not as shiny as silver and it doesn’t look quite as pretty.
  For those reasons it’s not really considered to be as valuable as silver because if you made it in to a ring it would bend out of shape way too easily and just wouldn’t look very nice!
