Silver is a significant substance in the Forests of Hell as it is known to repel spirits.[1] Shades that touch it are thrown backward, though the touch of the Shades ruin it.[1]
Silver can also heal the effects of a Shade attack. Silver dust is applied to areas of the body that are affected, reversing the necrotic effects of the Shade's touch.

Scadrial
Silver is Allomantically inert.[2] It may have interesting properties, but on Scadrial they are largely undiscovered.[3]
To clarify what is meant by inert in this case, silver does not produce any effect when one attempts to burn it. It can be pushed or pulled on though. This is shown in chapter two of Shadows of Self when Wax pushes off of some silver.
Trivia
Brandon originally envisaged the Allomantic powers of tin as silver, falsely assuming that pewter had a high quantity of silver.[4] He also considered using it instead of aluminum when Vin is captured in Kredik Shaw, but decided it was too abundant.[2] After changing it, he was concerned that Vin's earring might be confusing, so it became 'silver coated'.[5]
