Basic density tests combined wit XRF and Eddy Current and ultrasonic conductance tests will differentiate real vs fake. You can use XRF and eddy current tests right through the package. Eddy current is especially good since tungsten alloys are extremely resistive and gold is very conductive. A heavy plating will defeat XRF though.

Make a "bait safe". Once installed if I get broken into they can find that safe, break it open and steal the fake stuff.

I'm the opposite. I'll only buy my gold online from one of the major dealers. SD Bullion is my main place. I trust them more than I trust some guy in a shop. That guy in the shop is more likely to be fooled or make mistakes than SD Bullion. I've seen videos of these cheap machines test fake gold as real and real gold as fake. SD Bullion gets their gold from the mint and the mint gets their gold from the mines and it's tested many times with higher quality machines. Some old guy in a shop can easily have fake gold slip by and sell it on accident. And if you accidentally buy a fake gold piece, he will deny that he sold it to you. He will never own up to that type of mistake.

There is a magnet test that will work on these bars. Many people don’t know this but gold is diamagnet. This means it interacts with magnetic fields in the exact opposite way to common ferromagnetic materials. Both the north and the south poles of the magnet will REPEL real gold. The effect is very weak though so care must be taken if you want to observe it. Hang the gold from a long string and then slowly bring the magnet to it. You will see the gold is noticeably pushed away by a very tiny but noticeable amount.

@@MyGoldNZ Two is not enough if you only use dimensions and weight. Tungsten fakes will pass. You need one more like acoustic ping, bite test for 24k, paramagnetic repulsion, or Eddy current drag. The first two require no tools. The second two are very simple and can be done with a strong magnet. Then visual inspection is always required if you want to catch real gold counterfeits. High grade gold alloy counterfeits like 22 or 23k can be tricky too.

I made the profit and a few days later they called me and said 2 of them were fake. I had the receipt with pictures of the day I purchased them. The employee who bought them back basically threatened me physically and I made a deal with her to return the profit but not the principal I paid for the bars. Now I have 4 more bars that are questionable and lost a long time relationship with my local coin shop...what can I do

And that's the reason I've switched to coins. There's so many non destructive ways to test them (not being in card etc.) that making a fake coin pass all tests the only way to make it is to make a 100% replica - which for bullion is nowhere near as bad as a non precious coin - neither is very common either as there's no business in it for counterfeiters although in history there has been states copying bullion coins in order to sell their embargoed gold. Tungsten Krugerrand you say! Well... It can't even pass the ping test so while weight and diameter can certainly be correct it's easily identified as fake. There's one benefit over bars though and that is most of them have serial numbers where as coins do not. Whether you like that or not is ofcourse dependent on personal belief as well as where in the world you are as some countries have bad tendencies. Here round "bars" or just serialized coins could be a nice if such is made - I mean even banknotes have serial numbers. Also in the case of theft the stolen goods is easily registered in the theft register - nobody looks up unserialized coins - nor does it seldom give meaningful results. Sur metal can be melted but it's something you need to get the equipment for and if selling much melted presious metals then you might as well attract unwanted attention.

I take it very strongly. :/ The QR code contains, among other things, a "signature" from the creator of the QR code. Together with the website and another aspect that I have forgotten, it can only be changed by the creator and read by all users with a QR scaner. It makes no sense to add a QR code just to share a message that there is only proof in paper form. Otherwise, it is also not difficult and expensive to check somewhere whether it is pure gold or not. Holding a stronger magnet on it can give a little reassurance. But for absolute safety you need equipment or a specialist. :)

XRF (X-ray fluorescence) is an excellent tool as it does elemental analysis telling you exactly what the imposition is. at least on or near the surface. From what I've seen the equipment is cost-prohibitive for the average person (In the $20,000 range) and the user / owner may need special licensing / certification as it is an X-ray (ionizing radiation) source. Checking dimensions to estimate density is a simple check but the counterfeiters will use tungsten which has the same density of gold to cheat this. The electrical testers (such as Metalytics) check the conductivity of the sample; these are much more affordable (several hundred dollars) and can measure deep into a sample.

Yup XRF units are spendy but you can get used ones and fix them up. Older ones use nuclear sources like radioactive cadmium in them that needs periodic replacement. Newer ones use a mini x ray tube and a filter that cuts out the low energy band of x rays. They do have one major flaw though, they only scan skin deep. A while back i had a crapton of gold plated laser diode mounting blanks and the xrf said it was Au 96% and Si 4% which was only accurate for the top plating. In reality it had Cu65/W35 for the mount, a Ni layer a Cu layer an Ag20/Au80 layer and the final Au/Si layer. 🤓

God bless you and thank you very much. I was about to buy the same one from a guy off the facebook marketplace. So while i was waiting i just googled how to tell the difference and your video popped up when I watched it. Everything you said on the video checks, the thickness and the app so nice I told him it’s fake and he was like oh really how did you know he? He’s such a liar. The look on his face was funny though. Thanks again very much

That would be not too helpful, given the packet-weight would throw any weighing. It the fake is copper-filled, then a simple measurement test would easily detect the fake.

U can tell right away but how close the lady is to the outer edges of the bar she way closer to the edge then the real bar the real bar has some space and the numbers and letters are way more bulky and with the real one there more refined and perfect same thing with the trademark sign it’s smaller on the real one as well

Theoretically, they can, but if that's the case, why is it that every time someone makes a video about fake precious metals on KZbin, the dimensions are way off? I've watched over a dozen videos and in every case, the physical dimensions and the weight alone are way off. I'd love to see an example of a small bar or coin (10oz or less) that passes a specific gravity test with flying colors, yet is still counterfeit. Maybe the counterfeitors haven't tried because it's too easy to find gullible people so why waste resources creating a more perfect fake?

@@purelogic3595 I did see one bar that was correct dimensions on a show about a scam in NYC. The bars were tungsten core and gold plated in a “mint” package with a serial number. They were Chinese origin. I like placer gold because it’s easy enough to know if it’s real or not.
