A multinuclear silver core can be stabilized in the cavity of a titanium‐oxo cluster. In their Communication on page 11252 ff., L. Zhang, J. Zhang et al. report two such core–shell Ag 6 @Ti 16 ‐oxo nanoclusters, the structures of which may remind people of the traditional Chinese silver ingot currency ‘yuanbao′. The octahedral Ag 6 clusters inside the semiconductive Ti–O shell display different orientations, which further influences their optical limiting effects towards 532 nm laser irradiation.
