Price at the time of typing is £24.50p.
I thought it was expensive until I saw Rapid's cheapest is £38, and everyone else wants like £50 now!

Sn63Pb39 - something is wrong with this marking 
It is a mass percentage composition of an alloy, but this one sums up to 102% 
I always used solder wires by Cynel Unipress: leaded Sn60Pb40 (60% tin, 40% lead), lead-free Sn99Cu0,7Ag0,3 (99% tin, 0,7% copper, 0,3% silver). I also have some solder pastes (AG TermoPasty): leaded Sn62Pb36Ag2 (62% tin, 36% lead, 2% silver), and lead-free Sn96,5Ag3Cu0,5 (96,5% tin, 3% silver, 0,5 copper). As you can see these numbers always sum up to 100.
