They can be. In considering the value of precious metals, one of the biggest factors is the weight. As of May of 2010, an ounce of silver was worth almost $19.00. The value of a silver medallion would depend on how much "actual" silver is present in the medallion as opposed to alloys that may be mixed in, and weight.
