SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10464 Posts	Posted 12/07/2014 9:02 pm I would be happy to test it for you. But, there is a catch. You have to be a bit more active on the coin forums here on CCF, with posts of substance, because you will need 50 posts before you will be able to send me a personal message....

pocket change 50 Pillar of the Community Canada 1751 Posts	Posted 12/07/2014 9:11 pm @ SPP Ottawa what does your special machine do? I've had a life long fascination with rocks. I used to keep 300lbs in my 5th floor apt. Now I'm near the Rocky Mountains I can search to my hearts delight. Part of my flower garden contains my treasures, not to mention scattered rocks around the house. I was always curious about your machine. Can it be used to detect fakes? Sorry for all the noob like questions!! Report this Post to the Staff
