Silver & Gold Coin Ping Tester Review! 

Tried to make my own. It didn't work consistently. So I ordered one and it was very easy using the link you provided.

Great product I will have to get a few of them to certify coins that I can purchase.

Great video, just getting into coins and precious metals. I ordered it from your link. This will help me to not get ripped off if I feel something is a little shady about the seller.

Yes I bought same one from Sound Money Metals on Facebook. I use the Pingcoin app. So far so good I do not have any fakes. I like I can do half dollars too.

Awesome video man!

Agreed about the suggested way of ringing the coin by twisting it and letting go. I never used mine like that, instead using a light wooden stick to lightly tap the coin. The pinger is plastic and I don't want to be stressing it or the coin held.

Excellent honest review as always 👍🏼

Fascinating! Thanks for the information Seeker! And a Happy Independence Day to you and your family! 🇺🇸🇺🇸

Loved those gold pings at the end!

Wow that's crazy this is amazing

This is the second time I have seen a demonstration on one of those. I agree with your assessment about not using the hard plastic to ping the coins. I do think I am going to get one of these. Thanks for sharing.

I've seen it on other videos. Best review I've seen.

So cool l always learn so much from you.

I like this tool, not required but a good convenience andhelps eliminate the drop threat and creates a nice tight node for it to resonate around. I keep wondering about the plastic vs wood hitting it. Is the bic pen or wood any better than the pocket pinger plastic? Is there any evidence the plastic actually does dent the metal? I wouldn't be surprised with gold but maybe its just paranoia. Thanks for the video it was a good rundown

Don't hold both sticks of the pocket pinger when testing, your hand inadvertently applies pressure, which loosens the hold, and interrupts the natural resonance being generated by "variations of tension" by your squeezing the ends (this absorbs some of the kinetic energy from the strike, which lessens the 'vibrational translation of the shock wave through the metal' [ which is aligned according to it's composition ] ). Highly pure gold is denser, and has a much tighter alignment of the atomic structure. so, when pinched between opposite sides by non-conductive, non-vibrational surfaces at a tiny point (to minimize friction), the non-conductive striker (in this case, that wooden dowel) creates a cleaner and more long-lasting bell-like ring. The South African Mint once was headed by a musician by education, before he went into metallurgy. He knew this, and worked with designers to "balance the distribution" of weight and pattern surface area to maximize this phenomenon. Ergo, South African Kugerands are almost like chimes in just how clear and clean their tones and harmonics are, within the diminishing pitch of a cymbal-bell, as it's a closed-loop planar surface. Cymbals and triangles on the other hand make indeterminate pitch, with rapidly diminishing resonance in both frequency and amplitude. Cymbals and triangles have both a break in the loop, and are made of lesser metals. At the elemental level, fake coins (regardless of density) do not have the alignment of atoms that pure silver, gold, platinum, palladium and rhodium have; hence, like the cymbals, they CLANK! There is a whole discipline within metallurgy which studies thermal and electrical conductivity and vibrational resonance, as these metals are also used in the electronics, scientific and aerospace industries for their special properties, especially these properties in extremes of temperature, pressure and non-reaction to elemental exposure. Of course, it's a guideline. Nothing beats a good piece of hardware like a Sygma Metalytic tester. But for the average person, the pocket pinger is simple, and doesn't require a learning curve to get accurate and consistent results. So, for the beginner, it's a winner.

Excellent and honest review!

Cool info 👍👊

I always have a pocket pinger and stack stick with me when I go to buy coins... Great tool!

Love that sound...might try to make one

I’ve been curious about this!

Lot’s of whacking going on in this video! 😆 Great review Seeker!

Nice review, cool item, awesome sounds...thanks .

It’s so simple but so affective

Thanks for the video. We see that there is a coin pinger app to test ping sounds, but what about for the silver bars?

I like that silver and gold testing....

Great Video, good pocket pinger 😀

Very interesting! Thanks for sharing!

It’s cool. Yankee did it the other day.

I wonder if you could easily add a piece of felt to the plastic the coin strikes? I have seen felt that comes with peel and stick adhesive with the purpose of sticking to the bottom of figurines to not damage the surface they stand on. I wonder if the device would still work as intended with felt covering the striking mechanism?

That’s a pretty cool tool.

Merci pour tes vidéos... I think the deviation in the measure is due to the coin not being exactly centered...

Great video, i think you should be holding it at or in front of the pivot point, jmho

I could listen to the gold ring all day WHY DID YOU STOP IT. Lol very cool review thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏻👊🏻

You will appreciate the pocket pinger even more when you get old. I find it soooooo much easier than trying to balance coins on my finger!

Oh man I would have loved to try this at the fraud booth at the coin show.

❤ thx for the info

did he fix the problem with the residue left from the rubber silicone nipple thingies?

I like how it holds the coins with the rubber tips. Would make me feel safer about not dropping the coin lol

What is it about them that make that sound and why doesn't platinum?

Thanks for the video.. Do you know, where in Canada, I can buy the Pinger and Stick?

will it micro scratch the coin...

the pocket pinger gets rid of that raised portion and I will buy one just to make it easier to hold a coin. I dropped plenty of coins testing them as it is.

Will you please name the specific app you use for the ping test?

With my APMEX 1oz silver rounds I only get 2/3 stars every time. Wondering if you know why this is

will it work for 1 oz bar

Are ASEs supposed to ping the same way a Morgan does? I haven't been collecting that long so I know where all of my coins came from.

Can it be used to test bullion bars?

I would like to see and hear you ringing sovereigns and smaller coins as this is when ringing coins gets more difficult.

How about striking them onto a big flat piece of marble

I love it

So where can you buy a ping tester in Canada.

I'd like to know the name of the iphone app. I don't seem to be able to find it.

Seems like a merge between this and the Fisch Ringer would be ideal. Or just add rubber tips to the Fisch Ringer. On the other hand can be it's easier obtainable outside US. Fisch products are really expensive for what they are and IMHO the only real thing almost essential to have in you toolbox would be the ringer when dealing with smaller than ½ oz. Size and weight sure nice enought but who has to deal with so many that a scale (cheap one and cheap even cheap M3 calibration weight is quite sufficient) and a digital caliper isn't sufficient? In fact even better. Coins can be "significantly" under weight and still tip Fisch scales. Sure they might still be gold but if the same underweight coin is weighted then it'd sure be noticed as something is odd - especially if it's not worn enought to suggest so much under weight - then probably a fake - but still of gold if it rings.

I'd like to buy one kit now for my bf's birthday but how long will it be delivered

Sweet

Kinda stupid question does it hurt or ding the coin at all? I know gold is a soft metal, what about silver?

With enough technology you can impose a matrix over reality with Gold, it seems it density and stability might help in marrying waves and electrons as it radiates energy

As an aid, the sustain ( duration of the ping) should last for about 5/1000 of a sec on the short end. Tested 90% silver Morgan and Peace dollars. Gold may have a longer sustain, have yet to test one.

Cool

Great product. So, I order silver or gold from a reputable dealer. When it arrives at the house I check it. I find a counterfeit coin in the mix and contact the company. They’re not going to believe me anyway. These are good if I go into a shop and do this before buying.

Where's my Bar Dinger 😁

What bullion tester app do you use?

I want one

How did you get the bullion test app?

You can use second coin to point first one

What is this prise?

what is the app called

What is the app called

what I perceived as a failed genuine coin test by ear was approved by the app. It's really sensitive, must have! Actually have a tube of silver Krug's I'm super scetch about and dying to test

What app are you using on your Phone?

10:59 Sound like before 24k, about 22k. ;D That with silver, right? Does you can open that tool, like if you doing something bigger, then coin?

What app is that?

What is that app? I need one.

Hmmm getting one in Europse is expensive unfortunately (something like 42 US dollar with shipping). But i want one anyway...looks very promising

Better Review then LivecoinQ&A had of this product!! JJ

What is the exact name of the app?

Good morning,whats the name of the App ?

Wow 🤩✌️🌻🌻

I don't know jack about junk silver, but I can tell. 999 just by touching it. Same with hardened steels. But then again, I carry an electrical charge like in the great Gatsby. Might have something to do with it.

Sucks I can’t get this app on iPhone so mad

5:45 he can't even get the 1/10 to ping and acts like it totally did 🤣

I think just 12 minutes of pinging coins over and over with No human voice would be better at portraying the good value this device brings to stackers.

Is the bullion test app free? Is there a specific app you got? Ty

Hey Seeker, do you have a electronic gold and silver tester?

Happy independence day

Do SD Bullion branded 1oz silver rounds have a very short ping? Shortest of any of the silver (ASE, Apmex, BGAGSC and a generic buffalo) I own

App name?

Could you 3D print something similar designed the way you want it

what bullion test app are you using?

I bought the off brand less expensive knockoff. I know shame on me. I did figure out a pretty nice hack for the stack stick that I am willing to share. I drilled a hole in the end of my stick and flush mounted a neodymium magnet in the tip of the stick. I used some good Locktite brand super glue gel and it's holding it in there nice. Now I can do 2 tests with the same instrument. 😊

Trying to buy but can't find the link

It's a great device! Love mine and will do a giveaway on my channel soon!. Cheers!

Does this work with generic 1 oz rounds and bars?

one big problem, i don't think coin dealers will let you get their coins out of a slab or cardboard flip to test it unless you buy it first, i don't think they will let any stranger handle or mishandle their BU/Gem coins and hit them with a stick or something else, and here's comes another question let's say you buy the coins and test them in front of the dealer if for some reason you need to sell them back to him , will he accept the same price he charged you in the first place or will he argue that because coins where taken out of their slab or cardboard flip he will buy them back at a lower price? i will also love to see a video of the faces ppl make when testing this in public specially the coin dealer face lol.

Did the guy who sent you this give you a discount code for your followers to save some money?

Couldn't hear the sound. Accustomed to hearing something after a strike. You made the sound proper 1/3 of the time

I watched you half dollar hunt stream last night but couldn’t comment I’m a Chanel subscriber why couldn’t I comment? I love your Chanel and have asked questions but last night I had a few but couldn’t ask them

Measure the density

Will the pinger work in a 2x2, and will it damage coins?

Szczypnąć kruszec, fajnie.
