<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gilbert, post: 3131459, member: 73104&quot;]I remember during the late 1970&#039;s a local coin shop displaying a 1000 oz. bar with a stamping of .999 silver.&nbsp; The bar sported a small drill hole, the swarf of which was contained in a dish to the side, with a small bottle of silver testing solution.&nbsp; A note described the metal as not containing silver, except for the plating.&nbsp; Another note stated that the shop would not be buying silver bullion bars unless the patron agreed to having it drilled and tested.&nbsp; I really felt for the owner because he had trusted someone and in returned got burned.&nbsp; At the time, silver was around ten dollars an ounce, so he really took a hit.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
