<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 3911991, member: 15199"]If you are worried about titanium, you use an ultrasound velocity /thickness device as the velocity of ultrasound through gold is 3200 and titanium is 6100 meters/sec. A cheap ultrasonic depth meter on Amazon can be under a few hundred. The biggest problem is a gold coin is not completely flat with the devices, so a transducer fluid has to touch the device and your coin. Mineral oil works with mine, and I clean it off with acetone. Silver by the way has a transmission of 3600, copper 2800.
