This is exactly why I purchased the Sigma Pro Mini. So I would be able to check for myself all metal that I receive regardless of where it came from. Most people would rather have more metal than pay for a machine to check it. But without a way to prove what you have you will always have that uncertainty.

If a SINGLE legitimate sold bar from any company tests bad, there's a big issue. During every pour (run), the first bar, at least one bar mid run and the very last bar should all be tested so that there is NO QUESTION of how fine your metal is. I'm a hobby artist, and even I use this practice. It's the only/best way to cover your own ass.

XRF isn’t 100% accurate either, as it only tests the surface. Speg mentioned that in the video. Alternative testing methods (short of fire assay) would be specific gravity test and ultrasound test. If silver bar in question passes both specific gravity test and ultrasound test, then the silver bar is genuine. If it fails one or both test, you know it’s fake (ie not 999 silver).

Great video and advice, but I do want to mention that for most metals, Nitric acid isn't the best choice to check for impurities, as silver is unreactive with HNO3. Hydrochloric Acid would be the much better choice, as lead, copper, manganese, nickel, and many other metals get dissolved in HCl, but silver will not. So a better option would be to drill out your metal, weigh it, drop it in HCl, and see if it reacts. Then, compare the weights afterward. However, in the case of tungsten, nitric acid is the better choice, so both acids are useful.

I had a similar problem with an Englehard 10 oz and the basic Sigma machine that showed it was slightly out of the the lines to the right. Brought it to a shop with a Sigma Pro and tested it with the reader and the specific gravity by measuring it. The numbers were the top bar read in the orange just before the red 1.79 and the bottom bar in orange just past the green 1.65. It was also confirmed legit at a different shop using an Olympus XRF machine. Look at the directions on the Sigma, it explains the variables that can happen. I would suggest that person take that bar to a shop and get a second opinion.

Thank you for talking about WSS Spegtacular. I'm all for more people getting into precious metals; however, I feel that WSS is selling the idea of "silver to the moon" to people that want to become rich through precious metals overnight. They don't understand you should get into precious metals for the long term. The price of silver has not done much and it seems that those of us who stack consistently have only seen the negative of insane rising premiums. It will be interesting to see how many people who bought silver for the first time will react if silver never rises to their expectations. How quickly and how many of them will sell their silver back at a loss? I will continue to stack slow and steady and hope that the premiums (even if the price of gold and silver rises) come back down.

Thank you for sharing this video. I have purchased 1700 ounces of silver and 14 ounces of gold since Mid January 2021(including two silver bars in question.) I stopped this video at the the13:20 mark and bought a Sigma Metalytics Precious Metal Verifier PMV Basic Set on eBay to test my silver and gold. I'm extremely disappointed in Jim with Wall Street Silver, and in my book, he's lost all credibility.

@@Spegtacular I found your video on Australian silver stackers forum. I’m 3 hrs away from SGB. I’ve placed 2 orders since January with them. I buy government coins. Now I don’t know what to think. I was into numismatic coin collecting since 2012. Took a break in 2016 and have started with bullion as a hedge this year. I did like the look of the bar, now I’m really wondering if the silver content has been contaminated from the private mint. I don’t have the spare $ to get a machine and I’m 3 hrs from a lcs, which would be SGB. I got out do to counterfeit products and buying from RCM was way too expensive, this way I was sure of getting a non counterfeit coin! Great work and I just subscribed.

Venezuela. In 2018 people went to bed and silver was 62 bolivars an ounce. They woke up on market open 2 days later it was 462$ an ounce. Within a year it was over a million. Now it’s 71,000,000 an ounce. That is why I bought another batch of silver for 31 an ounce last week.

Did she test it in different areas of the bar, or with the wand? I have found that if the area you are testing is uneven (like part of the design) it can give you a faulty reading.

I stopped buying from Silver Gold Bull about a year ago when they cancelled one of my orders. Customer service had no interest in helping me to reinstate the order, and kept insisting I cold just " reorder it ". The problem was, everything i had on that order was on sale when I ordered it and would cost much more to reorder. I have no interest in dealing with a company with such poor customer service when I've had good outcomes with other online dealers.

The one thing about your video is you don't question the reliability of the Sigma. My RP gold Mexican libertad also tests as not 999 gold on Sigmas. But tests as gold on an X-ray tester. Sure, maybe something is wrong with the bar but I've seen enough inaccuracies from the Sigma to question the device more than a Silver Towne product. Just my two cents Spergie.
@Spegtacular
@Spegtacular 3 года назад
There’s several issues with the machine and some of those issues are even identified and disclosed by sigma themselves. I’ve never once seen them say a 10oz bar of pure silver didn’t pass the machine ;)
@HDDynalowrider
@HDDynalowrider 3 года назад
IDK how their production goes but I assume they make a batch of silver and maybe a batch got mixed wrong or got contaminated with copper or somthing and there will be more out there. Whatever bars were made with this batch are low grade. Rushing to get product out can lead to mistakes..
@SalivateMetal
@SalivateMetal 3 года назад
You can do the specific gravity test without destroying the bar to find out if it's silver as well. At least 90% and above. Maybe it's a lower purity for some reason. I'm sorry for the treatment you received over there. I was shocked to see that. Wow.
@Spegtacular
@Spegtacular 3 года назад
The bar would likely be 97% according to Jenny’s test at a local shop with an XRF machine. The specific gravity test is going to be really tight on the numbers but it could be worth a try.
