johnnydee New Member Canada 40 Posts	Posted 02/21/2008 9:01 pm sorry my question was is there a way to test to see if an old coin has real silver.thanks Report this Post to the Staff
GO Moderator United States 6563 Posts	Posted 02/21/2008 9:48 pm There are a few chemical tests you can do but most might devalue the coin. Posts some pics if you can and we'll first tell you if the coin is silver...and if there were ever any counterfeits of that particular coin Report this Post to the Staff
KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 02/21/2008 10:37 pm Hmm...there may be an easier way to go about this: research the particular coin for silver content. Assaying an actual coin is more difficult than even spotting a fake coin. Report this Post to the Staff
