The clasp has a spring in it. It will always magnetize.

[@jolomorph]

silver nickels have a large mintmark above the building, and any dime, quarter, half or dollar before 1965 in 90% silver. Enjoyed your video, thank you

[@rogereaston1188]

War nickels are only 40% silver and they are the nickels that have silver.

[@NancyCronk]

The bracelet at 17:00 is Krementz, which is a high quality costumer jeweler. It is still worth reselling, even though it is not gold.

[@thatsateacherslife6347]

THANK YOU for sharing! I’ll be coming back to this video over and over! ❤️

[@ResellerRevolution]

I hope it helps you find a big stack of gold some day! ❤️

[@MetalBum]

One note is silver can turn green if it’s stored in certain plastic containers especially plastics with PVC! Just FYI. Thanks for video

[@ResellerRevolution]

Yes, but this is pretty rare. 5 years of buying thousands of pounds of sterling and tens of thousands of coins and I saw it very very little. But it’s good to note that yes it is possible. Thanks again for watching!

[@officialtheory001]

Silver don't turn green but black

[@heartsafirecouture9007]

I love this video and your cute personality! Also, absolutely love your seam ripper "pointer"! ;0)

[@ResellerRevolution]

Oh thank you. ❤️ That seam ripper is my constant sidekick....it made the video look pretty legit too!! 😂😂

[@maryammirza7119]

Thank you for a very informative video . Quite detailed and interesting :)

[@juliusigor]

clasp can be magnetized due to the spring build inside it. note gold nor silver are soft metal not advizable for making spring.

[@pisceanbeauty2503]

My understanding is that rhodium plating can cause a silver or gold item to be slightly magnetized.

[@realwildgoods]

This was such a great video, thanks so much!

[@lisamckinnon3363]

I agree

[@rogereaston1188]

I enjoyed your video, but war nickels between 1942 and 1945 are only 40% silver and they are the only nickels that have any silver. All other silver change 1964 and prior are 90%.

[@nedracrouse8125]

Ran across your channel..great information.

[@thehumboldthub3336]

Thanks for the great information!

[@ResellerRevolution]

Thank you for watching! ❤️

[@MsShellybell12]

Thanks for video I am a vintage antique seller on Ebay I use information to learn what is fake and what is real.

[@MetalBum]

Nice I like this type of thing. I actually have a channel investing in gold silver for investment. Thanks for the video!! It’s good to know these things. Thanks

[@ResellerRevolution]

Thank you for watching. ❤️

[@Helene2367]

Very good info.

[@jedaholmberg3211]

That was super interesting

[@YvonThriftyRich]

Thanks Christina, that was a great primer

[@ResellerRevolution]

Thanks Yvon! ❤️ just enough info to be dangerous! 😂

[@YvonThriftyRich]

Christina, I don’t wear much jewelry but some of my best Reseller Friends include the jewelry jar girls, I’m trying to learn so I really appreciate that you took us on a little slower pace with great shots of markings, I sure hope that you will continue

[@ResellerRevolution]

I can for sure do more videos on this subject. Leading up to a bit more advanced stuff!

[@mimisafay2899]

Thanks!

[@marieJennell]

Does or can a regular black magnet find real gold ? If not where can I find a metal magnet like u have? And does it stick to real silver or does it not like it don't stick to real gold? Thank u for this video! Its very informative ❤

[@greydoe]

I think you mean "magnetic," not "magnetized." Good, basic info though - I especially like the tip to bring a loupe - I'm often surprised at how many who frequent yard sales, thrift stores, etc., don't carry one. Thanks!

[@ResellerRevolution]

Thanks for watching!

[@mindjoystudio6436]

also some silver is plated over with rhodium which looks like chrome

[@bobskewer1874]

The war nickels have the mint mark on the back above the building. Slightly faster than checking dates. Happy hunting!

[@samuelcatoe1927]

War nickels also usually look VERY different from other nickels today due to tarnishing.

[@david_dip]

Thanks for this video you covered so much. I’m currently learning about silver and this video helps. We’re do you scrap and or resell the silver and gold?

[@rawveganfoodforthought2333]

Is it really worth collecting sterling to get scrap price? thank you

[@officialtheory001]

How do you identity unstamped stuff? Near impossible without tools or acid

[@ola3100]

Thanks

[@ronaldkieffer2316]

I watched your video over and over. Please make more videos. One of the things I wanted to let you know is there is a really cool tool to check gold to see if it's real. You can pick one of these scanners for $50 and it works on gold and silver. I'm thinking about buying one of the gold lock scanners but I'm not sure. Has anyone else bought one?

[@ResellerRevolution]

Thank you so much for watching. There are a few different tools on the market but I’ve never used any of them. I think that if having something to help verify your coins helps you then you should get one. For me, I learned from a jeweler/coin dealer so I had lots of hands on experience. But for a beginner or even a long time collector, you can never be too sure.

[@Ik-bj8yf]

Do know any scanner to test for gold. I need a name please

[@susanaalmeida5637]

925 is a number for silver

[@davidmaraman855]

.925 means Sterling silver. FYI.

[@dawnt5587]

Can you do a video on what a pile of the sterling silver stuff is actually worth? This is so interesting. Or maybe taking it to someone who buys it for melting.

[@ResellerRevolution]

Sure!! The value varies depending on the price of gold and silver per oz. it also varies, depending on where you take it. Precious metal values change daily. They will eb and flow with the economy. Thank you so much for watching!

[@dawnt5587]

Reseller Revolution To be honest, I didn’t think there was any money in it. Learn something new everyday.

[@plurallove]

Real gold does tarnish tho😮‍💨

[@danvango]

COOL

[@opnwndo]

Magnet... And magnifying glass... Weight helps.

[@rosemarieconner9493]

What does 14ktsg mean?

[@haroldroth9832]

I have come across jewelry marked gold and silver but it is not real. I bought a few pieces on EBay marked 14k and had no gold on it.

[@iqraakhtar5838]

I’m so tempted to buy a necklace from Poshmark marked as 18K listed for $200 only.

[@WingDude-jb1rw]

😊

[@alfa5243]

The weight.
