Abstract The utility of an alloy of 10% copper in silver (coin silver) as a construction material in certain low temperature experiments is discussed. While possessing thermal and electrical conductivities between copper and brass in zero magnetic field, this easily machined alloy has much less magneto-resistance and 10% of the magnetic specific heat of copper. Moreoevr, it is relativily resistant to creep under mechanical stress. A table of the low-temperature properties of coin silver is presented which includes the results of direct measurements of its magneto-thermal conductivity below 500 mK.
