<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 4602667, member: 26302&quot;]Might be interesting to use for ancients, but the best ancient fakes nowadays are melting down real ancients to make the planchets. They got burned too many time with metal composition proving their products were fakes, (traces of modern metals, no traces of impurities that should be in ancient metals, etc). Heck, this was practiced in the late 80&#039;s/early 90&#039;s and used for the Black Sea hoard.</p><p><br /></p><p>Like I said, it would still be interesting and valuable to know metal makeup. I also collect early Thai coins, (pre-machinery), and those are FASCINATING to read metal composition.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
