<p>[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 3925213, member: 27832"]It would be great if you could find a jewelry or cash-for-gold store that has an XRF analyzer. It's a machine that hits metal with X-rays and watches what comes off; it can give accurate percentage readings for every metal in the alloy, although only near the coin's surface. It might not pick up an iron core that was somehow inserted into the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
