  • Where do you buy fake silver eagle coins at, off some guy on the street corner? I guess the same place you would buy your fake $20 bills. The FBI will want to talk with you about counterfeit US money.

  • Important to remember that scales are only so accurate, if your weighing something check the accuracy of your scales, the error could be any thing from +/- 1g to +/- 0.001g depending on the quality of your scales!

    If your scales says it weighs 30g but has an error of +/- 1g, the actual weight could be any where between 29g and 31g.

  • I was wondering if you can say a 31.24gm 31.35 gm and 31.48 gm Silver Eagle is a fake. Those 3 are more them a Ozt and i thought Silver Eagles were exact. none of the coins are magnetic and they sound like silver but just weigh more then a ozt. im afraid they are silver plated fakes. Any ideas? God bless.

  • SLV is the a Double-fake

  • @Highrise408 Amen brother

  • good on ya

  • I don't have any silver eagles, but this video prompted me to weigh the few walking liberty halves I have. Should I be concerned that almost all of them weighed under 12.5? The range was 11.9 - 12.5, and most of them came in at 12.2. They all ring, and none are magnetic. They look good. ????? :/

  • How about Molybdenum? It's only 2.7% off in density?

  • It' s really true the bad coin chase away the good...

  • "The end result is that there is always gonna be a lighter coin."

    Not if they use lead.
