<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KBBPLL, post: 26203145, member: 104064&quot;]I&#039;m sorry but deliberately banging a coin that has significant numismatic value is dangerous and dumb. If you want to do it to bullion, fine. On collector coins, it&#039;s not a reliable test. They make fakes from real silver, the middle eastern gold fakes often had more gold than the real coins, this ping test is not going to tell you if it&#039;s an added mint mark or sandwiched fake, etc. Knowledge about what a fake coin looks like generally, and specific knowledge about a series - like die pairs, date position, mint mark types, etc - will get you a lot better results than whacking valuable coins. If you posted images of that 2025 ASE, a lot of people on here could tell you right away if it&#039;s fake. But you seem to be on here to start arguing so best wishes and good luck.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
