<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SilverSurfer, post: 806141, member: 21603&quot;]I don&#039;t know what you are planning to buy, but a scale that measures down to .1 gram resolution should be enough. PMs also aren&#039;t magnetic, so a strong magnet to see if they stick wouldn&#039;t be a bad choice. Lastly, if you are getting bullion grade silver (junk silver) tapping the coin lightly should produce a nice ring that lasts for a few seconds. This is all I do to check and believe I&#039;ve been fairly successful in determining fakes. I bought Franklin halves today, and the dealer had this fat half dollar in there that looked real, but made a thud sound when I tapped it. He said it was a magician&#039;s coin. I was like, &quot;OK, but I want silver. I&#039;m not doing coin tricks.&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
