  • In this video I show 3 ways to spot fake gold coins and fake gold bars. Fake gold coins can be made to look exactly like real gold coins so it can be hard to tell if they are fake or real. It took me a while to learn how to spot fake gold bars and fake gold coins until I learned the tests that I show in this video. The fake gold coin test that is the easiest is the magnet test. The fake gold magnet test is simply to place a neodymium magnet on the gold to see if it is real or fake gold. I do not recommend the fake gold acid test because it will destroy the gold coin or gold bar. My fake gold tester is a sigma machine which uses electricity to test the gold. Another easy fake or real gold test is the weight test. I hope that you were able to learn how to spot fake gold in this video and make sure to check out my fake Morgan dollar video to learn the ping test!

    A digital caliper is another inexpensive tool to measure the exact mm dimensions of the coin. Fakes can be wider or thicker than real coins. Good stuff!

      should be able to get the volume and in combination with the weight test would have to be one of the better fakes.

    00:00 🔍 Three methods to test gold coins or bars for authenticity: magnet test, weight test, and sigma metalytics verifier.
    01:29 ⚖ Weight test using a small digital scale to check if the coin matches its standard weight for its carat purity.
    02:47 🔬 Sigma metalytics verifier provides a more definitive test for identifying sophisticated fake gold coins or bars.
    03:53 🔊 Ping test, applicable only to gold coins, offers another method for verifying authenticity by assessing the sound produced.
    04:08 🎬 Check out the "Fake Morgan Dollar" video for a demonstration of the ping test.

    You may have known that coin was fake but sometimes you have to move it around a bit on the sigma...depending on airtight and relief

    Instantly was able to tell the fake and real Krugerrand. Real gold Krugerrands have a slight pink tint to them because of the amount of copper in the coin.

    Thank you for your video! I have two RMC 1 Troy OZ fine gold bars, but now I can see 4 or 5 small dark spots on their surfaces. Some posts said it's normal but they are 9999. I suspect that's lie since my 18k gold ring never had such spots. Can you give me some insights? Thanks again.

    YES!!!! I ordered a 2015 1-troy-oz. China Gold Panda from eBay way back in November 2015 (this would be China's final year of that troy weight unit!): 1. NO magnet stick. ✅ 2. Weighs in at 31.13 grams, THIS IS GOOD. ✅
    BONUS: it measures 32-33mm across... ✅! :)

    For weight in Grams, if i have multiple various yrs or the Australian Kangaroo 1oz coins is it common or possible that they vary in weight by .01 and .02 from one another and still be legit. Thanks for your content, it has been very informative and entertaining.....been following for yrs

    There's a guy on eBay selling a 1-oz proof gold eagle which is actually a copy and the bid is up to 1875, I told him the coin is a copy and he advertises it as a replica and he shows the picture of the back of the coin that says copy on it, yet people still bid up to 1900 with four days to go, you can look at it right now. I told the guy to take it down, he can get in very big trouble for doing that, even though he advertised the coin as a replica

    Why do fakes tend to have prooflike finishes? It is actually harder to make BU coins or are they trying to pass them off as proofs for extra collector value?
