<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CyberPunk, post: 5328, member: 625&quot;]Hi GDJMSP,</p><p>Modern refined chemicals, compounds, and inventions often have a bit more “punch” than their ancient counterparts. The 2000 year old Babylonian Battery works and I would give me a little shock (maybe), but that doesn’t mean its ok to stick my finger in a light socket. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;I know from my chemistry classes that gold is considered an incorruptible metal, but sulfuric acid will dissolve it and it can not be recovered. <i>Regina Purgandum Vestia</i>, can be paraphrased as <i>‘Queen of the Laundry”</i>, is a mix of chlorine, sodium hydroxide (a base) and water. My info came from a jewelry maker not a metallurgist so you may be correct. I would like to know if what you are saying is true. So, I propose a test. Would you be willing to drop that gold coin of yours in a cup of undiluted Clorox for a week or two and if it remains unchanged I’ll buy it.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
