<p>[QUOTE="EvilKidsMeal, post: 1112214, member: 28937"]Another easier way I have adopted is to balance the coin on your finger very lightly, and the take another coin and lightly tap it on the edge of the one on your finger. The ring of copper is extremely distinct and impossible to miss compared to the 'tap' of the zinc. try it with a few and you will immediately hear what I'm talking about. As Merc said bouncing it works, but I've found that the balance and tap method is easier because the copper ones will ring for a whole second or two.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
