<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gam3rBlake, post: 5295373, member: 115909&quot;]If I were you I would use a digital scale, calipers, and a magnet to check the diameter, width and weight to make sure they’re correct. If all those pass and it’s not magnetic there’s a 90% chance they’re legit.</p><p><br /></p><p>It’s pretty hard to make a fake silver coin without using actual 90% silver since the size will always be off or if the size is right the weight is off.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now if you really want to make sure you could always use a little acid on one (in a well ventilated area with proper eye protection) if you’re willing to make the sacrifice. Just take the lowest valued one and scrape it on a scratch stone until some shavings come off the side then use some JSP silver acid solution. You can buy it on Amazon for under $10.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I bought a basic counterfeit detection setup for like $30 and it came with a digital scale, calipers, acid solution for gold &amp; silver and cotton gloves and I always recommend it to collectors since most fakes can be detected with nothing more.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course adding a Sigma Metalytics Precious Metals Verifier doesn’t hurt. xD[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
