The more fascinating characteristic of mercury is that it is a metal that is liquid at room temperature. But, yes, it does have a silver-like color to it. It's also used in those useless things called thermometers!

Mercury is the color silver. Silver itself, however, is another element.

If you have an old mercury thermometer you can see the color through the glass.
