The hero mimics the egg by coating a regular egg in soot and puts it in salt water--making the egg float midway in the solution and the soot makes the egg look silver under water. That's all I remember.

Did you read the book in the 60s or later?Do you remember any other characters, villains, sidekicks, etc?
Time period/location story takes place?
Anything about the cover?
The Mystery Egg by Jean Bothwell? Here's the plot summary from WorldCat: "Susan and her best friend, Hiram, try to solve the mystery of how and why Susan's aunt's valuable antique silver-egg has disappeared. When the egg is finally found, it reveals a wonderful surprise answer to the mystery."
