Silver Test Acid
Want to know the metal content of your silver bullion and coins? It’s easy using silver test acids
Unfortunately, fake silver coins (especially Chinese counterfeits) are being seen in increasing numbers and it’s important to be able to determine if your coins are the genuine article. True coin experts can gauge if a silver coin is real just by looking at it. Ask them and they’ll tell you that the fake one “just doesn’t look right.” It might have a sheen that doesn’t look true, or an unmatched seam. Other coin professionals use weight as a test, or the silver “ring test,” as silver has a distinctive sound when struck lightly by another metal.
