<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gatzdon, post: 314439, member: 8247&quot;]Not that I would ever recommend doing this due to the health risk, but I have read about scammers that would dip the coin in Mercury.&nbsp; It forms an amalgam on the surface that makes the coin silver in appearance with no evidence of plating.&nbsp; A metal detector should show that the coin is copper and not aluminum (which is what the trial coins were struck on at that time).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
