I have seen a really good pressure cast fake of a Tradie, alongside a genuine example.
The best way of picking the difference with these two was by examining each, side by side, under a 10x loupe, looking for surface imperfections. The ring tone was very close as was the weight. Not tested with XRF; perhaps that may have provided some extra clues.
