Fake Perth Mint gold on the market

Fake Perth Mint gold bullion on the market!!! Important tips to help you notice what is real!!!

[@Spined1234]

The solution is to stop buying from eBay and buy instead from a reputable bullion dealer, preferably one that gets its items directly from the Perth Mint.

This is what I do, and I have not had an issue with my silver or gold (and have tested it to confirm as such).

Spined1234 No joke just pay the premium and quick being cheap on an investment like this. Buy direct and you'll never have a problem. I've never had a problem and check my stuff and have always been good.

I did that but there was a delay. I have to wonder now if my gold was ordered by them off ebay......

[@cmorebutts7337]

I'm curious on your findings. Did anybody do any form of assaying? or other testing other than the visual inspections listed below? All of the most common assaying processes I know are:Fire Assay - Fire assay is one of the oldest methods of checking the purity of content in precious metals. ... Dry Assaying - Dry assaying works for gold and silver, as well. ... Wet Assaying - In wet assaying, solvents dissolve the sample. ... Spectrograph Assaying.

Just got off the phone from the Perth mint asking regards the....“CertiCard® SECURITY CASE” And yes apparently they use to have that printed on their older green packs but not the new black ones.

I got caught out with one of these bars. I bought it in May 2016 and for all intent purposes it looked real so I placed it in my collection. I had no other bars to compare it with until I got hold of an order of five 2.5 gram Pamp Bars recently and was shocked at the difference in size as they were probably about 4-6 times smaller in terms of mass whereas they should have been half the size. I took 5 gram Perth Mint bar to a reputable Gold dealer who was going to buy it off me until I mentioned that I thought it was fake and he stated he would need to open it to check. It weighed 5.1 grams and when I said that he could file it and check with acid I thought that he was going to pass out with shock when he discovered it was actually fake. I subsequently went to the Police and filed a report as this seller on Ebay had sold Gold bars to many many people. I am out what I paid for this item but I genuinely hope that they get caught and prosecuted because selling fake items is a really despicable thing to do! P.S. it had all of the aforementioned tells in your video i.e. the matting on the Swan, the rim around the bar and the thickness of course.
