<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cvicisso, post: 1318883, member: 29382&quot;]I think what DW-Coins is saying (and I am just stepping into this post - I haven&#039;t read the whole thing) is that the ASE is widely recognizable, and it&#039;s dimensions are known precisely.&nbsp; Measure the thickness, diameter and weight accurately enough - and if ALL THREE check out against the widely-known public (and non-changing) dimensions, you can rest assured that it&#039;s not a fake - or at least that it&#039;s made of silver (which is what really matters in the case of bullion).</p><p><br /></p><p>You might be an expert on those pretty APMEX and Sunshine Mint bars you posted pics of, but I&#039;m not.&nbsp; Nont sure who else is.&nbsp; If you wanted to sell them to me (for example), I wouldn&#039;t know what the dimensions are (except for the weight of course).&nbsp; Also, even if I looked up the dimensions, those rounded corners would make precision <i>extremely </i>difficult to verify.&nbsp; For example, if the bars were made of a heavier material, the counterfeiter could round &#039;more&#039; off of the corners and then the bar would still be the correct weight, length, depth, and thickness, and I wouldn&#039;t be the wiser.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
