    Great video. Buy a lot of bullion for myself and so far had two fakes both silver bars and both were lead shelled with a silver jacket. Unfortunately I don’t have special equipment however you could just ‘tell’ there was something not right so I took a drill to them which quickly showed the jacket. Both bars where from eBay in the UK.

      I’ve learnt my lesson the hard way. Just buy direct from the Royal Mint now.

    • @thehrschannel4784
      @thehrschannel4784 5 років тому

      The-Toy-Guy unfortunately bars in the UK are also taxed where as British minted coins are not subject to any sales tax or capital gains tax. Sovereigns and Britannia’s are still classed as legal tendar ie you can go to a shop and spend it and hence for this reason the above stated means that most bullion collectors in the UK stick to British minted coins.

    • @thehrschannel4784
      @thehrschannel4784 5 років тому

      The-Toy-Guy it’s food for thought. I’ve bought monetary metals for decades since about 1992 I think, and having many reputable dealers I’ve never had a problem other than eBay.
      Now I just buy direct from the Royal Mint and that way there is no messing. You are 100% right though if I saw silver I’d buy it especially if it was that cheap, however again in the UK it has to be hallmarked by law for precious metals so basically everyone knows what it is. I doubt you would find a £1 ladle that could be sold for £160 melted but you never know, personally I’ve not seen one, but in that instance I would certainly buy it and have it melted.
      There are ways to buy precious here for spot if not cheaper than, but not sure I’d like to give my secrets away here lol since everyone would probable do it here in the UK and I wouldn’t get my cheaper silver lol...
      For me I buy precious metals a. For my children to benefit in the future but also b. As a hedge against inflation. I bought several 1oz Britannia’s around £275 an ounce in the 90’s and now there £1250 there is certainly talk of gold hitting £3000 an ounce in our lifetime so even if I pay spot I’m still happy, the spot price plotted on a graph over decades has a very clear trajectory and that is firmly up!!!

    • @thehrschannel4784
      @thehrschannel4784 5 років тому

      The-Toy-Guy I do like queens beast series very nice coins, and I have done well with them in the past. For stacking I buy 1oz Silver Britannia and for gold the Sovereign only because historically when I have rebalanced for some reason the sovereign sells better than the gold Britannia..... I don’t know why but for me they just seem to seem at a slightly better premium for their gold content. And then I try and buy a few of all the designs that come out mainly for my interest rather than the metal content but like I say in the past I’ve sold some of these coins for way more than there silver content. It’s about time I came back to Australia I have family in Perth and I loved the mint!!! You guys in Australia and in the US too have got the right idea of precious metals but here in the UK it’s a very over poked asset.

    You did not demonstrate the 3 wands for the sigma precious metals density tester - wands to test larger bars etc.. But instead you deferred to the magnetic tester as needed for larger bars as if the above density tester does not work for larger bars.

    • @SWPCayman
      @SWPCayman  5 років тому +2

      Hi Jose, great question. Spectrometers have limitations as well, they cannot be used effectively for thicker bars such as kilo gold and 100 oz silver bars, hence why we prefer the GVS machine (the last machine in the video) which can more effectively test larger bars. I'm not saying a spectrometer isn't a valuable tool to have; we'd certainly have one if we were buying scrap metal on a regular basis.

      @stormforge68 3 роки тому +1

      I weighed several of my 1 ounce silver maple leafs and they came in at one troy ounce, 1.003 or 1.005 Troy ounce. They are legit because I brought my silver maple leafs to an authorized Canadian Mint dealer to have them tested. He had a DNA machine to check the engraved maple leaf's security feature. All ok. So as long as the weight is just slightly more, you are safe and ok. And as the video mentioned, the coins (whether silver or gold) will never be under weight.

      Sounds tests are possible, but not a method we choose to use. A bit old school for us.

    Best investment I made was a water density scale. While I mostly buy from APMEX I do local deals from time to time. Saved me from buying a fake credit Suisse 5 oz gold bar.

    Good video,
    Question,
    1. where to buy the testing equipment
    2. A dealer showed how to test gold in his shop by scratching off a little and using acid?
    Also he said it was not possible to test silver easily as it needed to be sent away for a special test which i assume is using the tests shown in this video, can you confirm or give you opinion please.
    Thanks Chris Armstrong

    I had some material sent to a supposedly reputable refiner for refining to five 9's. Material received was not five 9's. The only real way to test for purity is to use an XRF analyzer. XRD will do the same but not as precise. XRF is better suited for purity testing. It will also tell you what the impurity is. A suppliers should be using one albeit expensive and all purchasers if one can afford a unit would be advised to do so.

      Yes, but the two issues are unrelated. The Canadian Federal government sold the countries gold reserves. The Royal Canadian Mint is an excellent institution.

    In the UK, any coin which has a value stamped on it with Queens head is classed as money and the penalties for faking them are 10 years for counterfeiting, 10 years for passing to another person, and 10 years for accepting a counterfeit ( so don't be a mug and tell the Police you have all these fakes you accepted...) - told this first day when working at a Bingo club in the 90's - the emphasis to us was the penalties on accepting it (to stop insider corruption). All UK bullion coins have a price and the Queens head.
