This is also how I verify the weight of gold coins in capsules. 1) Pop the lid off the capsule. 2) Put the lid on the scale, and tare it. 3) Put...
Thanks, but I'll continue to use gloves when I work with concentrated sulfuric acid (or if I ever again work with concentrated nitric acid). I can...
Two points: 1) This is a VERY common date. If someone were looking for a half-dollar to silver-plate, they'd stand very good odds of picking this...
Looks like a win to me. Be sure to follow up when you get them. I missed out on a Merc short set that looked almost this promising -- it went...
