<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Evan8, post: 2551295, member: 74343&quot;]I made these a lot in school. I forgot the chemical, but basically if you took a pre 1982 cent that was 95% copper, we would plate it in zinc using zinc pellets and again i forgot the chemical, but you would heat up the cents with the zinc pellets, they would turn silver in color, and then pull them out of the solution and burn them over a Bunsen burner and the silver color would turn gold. Alchemists who did this believed they were actually changing copper into gold at first.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
