Hi, thank you for watching. Silver bars and rounds come with many finishes. This one happens to have a "proof-like" finish. But real ones come like that. I buy 100+ 10 ozt. bars a month and I get everything, the key is testing it all even though it looks good(or bad). Thank you...
Thank you for watching. I'm not sure where you saw that but it was obvious when it was tested. When it came into the Shop it looked real. Our good client explained it, my daughter tested it. By looking at it, its definitely NOT obvious. Sorry for any misunderstanding. Doing another "Fake" item video, check it out. Lesson is, be careful when buying, buy from a trusted dealer. Thank you...
Thank you for watching. Hmmmm, interesting. Is that good or bad talking like a 1930's radio host? Hopefully you liked the subject and check out more in the future. Appreciate your feedback. Have a great evening...
Thank you very much. Hope you enjoy my videos. Yes, definitely stop by my daughter's Coin Shop, she has plenty of Silver, Gold, Coins, and Currency for sale. Let her know you watched my videos when you stop in. Enjoy your visit. Thank you, have a great day...
Thank you for watching and your feedback. When the customer brought it in Alexandrea tested it with a magnet after she knew it wasn't real. Actually we never use a magnet, mostly the Sigma and weigh it. But the customer only paid $150 and suspected it was fake, it was, then he donated it to my daughter's shop. Always be careful, soooo many good fakes. Thank you. Share with others to make people aware...
Hi, thank you for checking out the video. And yes got to be very careful when buying precious metals. Always buy from a trusted seller. Yes, the T-shirt is very cool. I had it made for my daughter's shop. We are going to be selling them online very soon. Check with the website in the next week or two. Website is www.zmanscoins.com or just Google Z-man's Rare Coins and you can find a link. Thank you sooo much...
This is the first time that I have seen a Sigma. Interesting. Is that Champion Safe in the corner the Triumph Series? Mine is even the same color. I received most of my safe education AFTER my purchase and though the Champion is definitely better than many "safes" out there, it still is fairly dismal for break-in and fire protection. Have you ever watched any test videos of the Sturdy Safe Company? Pretty impressive! Hopefully I'll have one someday. Thanks for the educational video.
@@shaundevrisky349, thank you for watching my video. And yes it is. Like it a lit. Definitely does the job, very happy with it. Haven't seen any videos, ill have to go look. Anyway, hope you watch some of my other videos and subscribe. Have a nice night...
Got a theory .. fake bars outnumber real bars. Throw it at a table or drop it the fake ones sound fake because harmonics it's made from 2 different metals. Silver thick enough to pass most tests but with a tungsten core
Thank you for your comment. I get it, but since this one is still sealed, its a great piece for teaching. But yes, sound will be different. Thank you again...
@@johnz-man4754 it should ring different through the plastic as long as it's a bag or pouch piece of duct tape and a rubber mallet. Hang it on the tape strip and try to play it like a xylophone .. they're coated thick enough for a scratch test or acid test or most older tests to pass it but when struck it sounds wrong I used to work in a jewelry making shop .. they've been faking silver bars for a long time . They got a little better at faking them nowadays but you can still tell they're fakes if you know what you're doing. I won't buy a bar I can't ring like a bell first .
Thank you sooo much, really appreciate your kind words. But, actually my daughter Alexandrea owns it. I'm more the financial backing. She does all the work, I help at big Coin Shows, also acquiring coins, etc. We will be set up at Summer F.U.N. in Orlando, booth #232. Come check us out...
@@alexisboucher523, that is a ways away. Sorry about that but my daughter can help you if needed and ship anywhere. Just contact her by phone, email, or text. Thank you again...
Thank you. Yes, we agree. Most people put 10 or 15 minutes tops, but we wanted to cover all bases with the shirt. Lots of people like these. Thank you, Have a great evening...
Thank you for your comment. I know several regulars that tell me they test silver coins that way. I have never personally tried it but might have to. Not sure how it works on bars, especially 10 ozt bars. Very thick so not sure. Maybe will do a video on that. Thank you, happy collecting. Looks like silver is on the rise. Thank you...
Hi again, thank you for your comment. Yes, the Sigma is very expensive, between $1,000 and $1,250. So not everyone can afford it or want to spend that kind of money. I can also understand not wanting to rely on others, but need to trust someone at some point. But I get it. Just find 1 or 2 dealers you can trust and it will go a long way. Thank you again, have a great day...
I like how your acting like you don't want to trust someone else to see if your silver is OK. Yet unless you hunt and garden and only eat your own food your trusting far more in life. I could go on. Buy a car, buy a house. You trust other people telling you it's ok
@@user-pj6bl5md5r, thank you for your comment. Of course in life you have to trust others. But also you can get burned by that trust. Good restaurants put out bad food and so on. Its called human error or mistakes. I trust my mechanic on my car, but I also get a second opinion. But through life we build relationships with many professionals and usually go to them with a higher degree of trust. When it comes to buying gold, silver, coins, etc., trust only goes so far. As a buyer I have to check EVERYTHING that comes in. I see hundreds of fake coins, silver bars etc. every year. And as a collector, they need to be very careful, lots of people trying to cheat them. So I believe they need to build a relationship and trust with who they buy from, whomever it is. Or, test it all to cover that risk. Thank you for your comment...
@@user-pj6bl5md5r I know a coin dealer Phil's Coin Shop Wichita Kansas. But I do not need him for anything. I can Ping test my Morgan's all by myself. And I Fix My Own Cars!
Thank you for checking out my video. Of course, they are the best. But understand, most people can't afford a Sigma so an x-ray machine is definitely out of the question. Thank you again for your input...
Thank you for watching my video. I don't ever plan to sell it, its a great teaching piece. I actually have 100+ fake coins and bars. They are great teaching tool. Thank you again...
Thank you for watching. Yes, its obvious. I like making videos that are a waste. Fortunately 99% of my viewers like my videos. Your the 1% that don't. Your opinion. Have a great day, thank you again for watching...
My local coin shop guarantees any coin they sold you just bring your receipt. Done Bought alot from him for that reason and the fact he will also buy back anything he sold me again just bring my receipt. Zero issues so far.
Thank you for the comment. Yes, that is awesome, any good dealer should guarantee everything they sell. Buying back also important with any dealer. My daughter's shop, Z-man's Rare Coins guarantees everything and we test silver or gold when people buy it. So everything is 100% guaranteed. Also, we buy back all the time. We also don't require a receipt. Come in, we buy it, that simple. Again, thank you, glad your happy with your supplier. Have a great evening...
If you return an AS Eagle or Morgan, how would he know you bought it there just because of a receipt? It sounds like a nice "guarantee," but it most likely can never be honored... 💡
@@Co-ClownWorld, agreed. Most dealers go somewhat on a trust system. If you bought a coin from us(Z-man's Rare Coins) and then returned it, we would know its appropriate value and based on sale frice know if the customer is being honest with us. Also, we believe in customer service, so not going to argue over a few bucks. If we give someone their money back, we will resell the item and get our money back and extra. Only thing with no refund is Bullion. Market fluctuations make it impossible. But we will buy it at current pricing. Hope that helped. Happy 4th of July...
Good talk here. Always check your stuff!!!
Thank you very much. Always...
the fake one looks shinier

@johnz-man4754 I'm not making fun it really is cool. Like Amelia Earhart on night at the museum.

@@charlesanderson32, thank you. My daughter is my daughter. She knows her stuff. Very happy.

Would have liked to see the magnet test used as well as the sigma, perhaps next time?! Good video and warning about fakes, thank you!
