From Witcher Wiki
In The Witcher, silver swords are used primarily against monsters as they reportedly have little effect on humans and nonhumans. Unlike the steel swords in the game, these cannot be bought or sold.

[edit] Witcher's silver blade
Given to Geralt at the beginning of Act II to fight The Beast of the Sewers. A silver sword is one of the two main tools of the witcher. It is a delicate blade only used against creatures who are vulnerable to silver, such as the undead and most types of monsters. It is light enough to be wielded in only one hand, leaving the other hand free for another weapon or for the casting of Signs. This blade forged of silver is the bane of a vareity of monsters.
The Witcher's silver blade actually has a steel core that has been plated with a thick layer of silver that is lethal to magic beasts. This weapon was made specifically for slaying monsters born of magic that cannot be hurt with common steel.
