Good afternoon,

I buy and sell lots of things, most of which is precious metals. I have a variety of tools to help narrow down counterfeit coins, gold silver old or bullion.

My problem is I have a few Perth Mint bars. CertiCard cases. There are no letters in the serials, they are all 1ozt.

I have read that there is a tamper proof seal on the back that is detectible with a uv lamp. Is this true with all the perth certicard cases? I just would like to know if I can use a lamp as a reputable method to detect well made fakes?

Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking time to read and possibly educate a simple man.

If you are buying and selling a lot of precious metals, Do yourself a favor and buy an XRF.

There are many many many fake Perth Mint gold bars, in all weights, going around, especially on ebay.

I would recommend buying one of these...
