In this video I talk about Fake silver and fake gold with a local coin shop owner. In this coin shop video we talk about silver stacking and ways to test your silver. If you are worried about fake silver bars, fake silver coins, and fake silver eagles then this is the video for you. Counterfeit silver coins have become a huge problem and you need to protect yourself. The best way to avoid buying fake silver and gold is to shop at a coin dealer or coin store that tests their metals for authenticity. Buy your precious metals from a reputable coin shop. When it comes to fake gold coins and fake silver coins most of these are coming from China. For anyone interested in silver investing and buying silver from a bullion dealer make sure to check out your local coin shop and ask them questions about how to test your silver and gold.

Imagine walking in with your fake silver and dude picks it up and flips it in the air and says that's fake got anything else?

@Portlandpreciousmetals Год назад

Most of the time I can tell its fake before they even pull it out of their pockets. from the other side of the room. When you handle these metals and products a lot you get to know them intimately. Get to know your metal. Grow your stack!

😂😂😂HAHAHA!

@J-Rad- Год назад

I really need to compliment this guy, he explained silver testing for the common person, better and more accuratly then the dozens of other videos I've watched on the subject, ....not everyone wants to spend thousands on equipment, kinda defeats the purpose of getting cheap silver, it becomes pricey if you can't test it cheaply and on the fly at times, pricey in that your buying fake silver or expensive testers ..Gl!

@Portlandpreciousmetals Год назад

Testers are just one tool in the tool box. I have had counterfeit 2.5 and 5 gram Pamp Fortuna bars test as real on the sigma so don't rely on just one method of testing. Also, Anything that has been sourced through the legitimate supply chain has virtually no risk, It is when it walks through the front door and bought over the counter that products need scrutiny. Grow your stack!

@LegacyStacker Год назад

Hi some feller! Yes, it's always great to be able to ensure your precious metals are genuine! There are many inexpensive tests you can do, weight test, diameter/thickness test, ping test, magnet test, slide test. 😎

@JeffreyAllanBackowski Год назад

I'm still trying to wrap my head around how they make sliver. I seen a video of a guy doing the process start to finish. Starts off with a rock with some green stuff on it, looked like dried up old hand soap, says the green stuff is silver. Melts it down, ads a bunch of another metal that looks exactly like sliver, pours in a bunch more of a different kind of metal that looks exactly like silver. Then he's like "ok that's pure silver" the amount he made was about equal to the other two metals he added... I don't understand... still trying to wrap my head around it. Probably lying about how they make it, like how they lie about gold. Force mercury to shed an electron voila! Gold. Do it again voila! Platinum.

@Edward-tm1dm 9 месяцев назад

You can also test silver with an ice cube. An ice cube melts pretty quickly on silver. I don’t know if gold is the same. But other metals does not melt the cube as fast.

@pmh1nic Год назад

Very informative. The number of fakes is sickening. Stick with reputable dealers.

@THEDRAGONBOOSTER8 Год назад

It is good to see that someone is reporting these fakes..

@LysippeLee Год назад

I started stacking a year ago and this is the best 'watch for fake silver' video I've seen. Thanks Portland Precious Metals and Coins & Silver Dragons.

@Portlandpreciousmetals Год назад

Silver is an element on the periodic table. The metal can't be faked but the product design can. Most fakes are really only good enough to fool you long enough to get your money in the scammers pocket. Then you get home, examine closer and call your LCS and ask them to test it for you. Numismatic coins are a whole different story though. Scammers have been counterfeiting coins ever since coins started being used. Grow your stack!

@LegacyStacker Год назад

Hi Michelle Sha! Yes, in the stacking community we want everyone to be safe, especially the new stackers! It's important to know that the coins we work hard to pay for, are genuine! 😎 Stay safe and keep on stacking!

@danssmokintreasures Год назад

Just the though I might have fakes in my stack drive me crazy.

This was the best explanation of how to check for fake coins I’ve ever seen. Portland Precious Metals is where I’m going for my next purchase.

@BlaubartMT 11 месяцев назад

These interviews you do with local coin stores are awesome and I really appreciate them. Good information all around, and good exposure for the store owners. Win-Win!

@GrandTreeChunker Год назад

I really appreciate you two speaking about the physical properties of the metal, and that we should remember that we are buying an element with known properties. I found it very useful to have it laid out in a sequential list of tests of physical properties to tell if you have a fake or not. And how sophisticated fakes may pass one test, but there are still other physical ways to tell.

@ranger178 10 месяцев назад

years ago, i worked at chase Manhattan bank as a contractor and they were unloading a truck with pallets of metal bars on them at the loading docks they were huge only two bars across on a pallet and about 4 inches square i asked the guard what they are unloading. he said silver bars they were taking them from an 18-wheeler truck with a forklift and just stacking them on sidewalk. to get loaded onto elevator to vault one pallet at a time. I said aren't you worried somebody will steal one and the guard said nah nobody could carry them and get away they were too heavy to run away with. must have been a lot of money even back then.
