<p>[QUOTE=&quot;usmc60, post: 2589023, member: 76739&quot;]From what I can gather the seller was consigned to sell the estate sale of the coins. Evidently he had decided to break the lot into 12 separate pieces. And to sell the lot in separate pieces. Like I said I was happy with the 11 of the 12 pieces. I&#039;m sure he does not know where the original owner of the coins that he was in charge of selling actually received all of what we see in the photo. So if the original owner of the lot, was tricked into buying this gold flake. The seller could not be responsible for what the original purchaser bought. I know back in 2000 when I went up to Alaska looking for work. A few of my friends who live in Alaska warned me about buying viles of gold flake from people on the street it was a common scam up there for rubes. And as of the other members have stated gold flake is basically worthless. All I know when I worked in the state of Washington I joined the Washington gold miners Association. Each month they have all kinds of classes on gold identification, where to prospect, and what to look for. And the weekends I did not have to work that was one of my favorite things going up in the mountains and doing a little prospecting. You could not find a better way to relax and unwind.Like I said I only had problems with the one item.And being a seller myself. It was just a courtesy to the seller of this lot. To inform him the gold flakes were not actually gold. And would not test. Testing for gold purity is not that hard. I bought the same tests that most jewelers and coin dealers usually by to tests products before they buy them.I personally would like to thank the seller was unaware of the gold flakes were not real. I know some people like other members have mentioned would salt coins in order to make them look better to sell them. I do not believe this is a case. In this situation. And for the members if you look at the add it says all 12 pieces are either gold or silver.And if the gold flakes do not actually have any gold. Even a very small percentage. I don&#039;t know it&#039;s me but I could not consider it gold in any way.So His advertisement is not exactly true.Yes the stuff in the vile may be considered gold flake by name and actually has no gold in it whatsoever.And what you see in my photos of the little vials with very little gold in them. Even those gold flakes test out at 14 karat.USMC60[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
