Jwazz212121 New Member United States 39 Posts	Posted 03/01/2020 5:09 pm I just want to thank you guys for all taking time to comment on my post. I'll be doing a XFR test asap and let you know! Report this Post to the Staff
Jwazz212121 New Member United States 39 Posts	Posted 03/01/2020 6:32 pm Guys!! That gumball at the gas station for $.25 was really starting to look good Until I did the ice cube test! HO-LY-GUAC-AMOLE what a HUGE instant difference! The 1980 Washington ice cube turned clear as soon as it hit the quarter and started melting like crazy spinning around The 90% silver quarter got a little clearer instantly and barely melted the whole time First bid is up 20million who wants it Report this Post to the Staff
lcutler Pillar of the Community United States 1677 Posts	Posted 03/01/2020 7:23 pm Look, you can melt ice, ring, feel, smell it whatever. It all means nothing. Weight, specific gravity, XRF are real, the other stuff is meaningless. The weight is already wrong. You can go ahead with the XRF or spend the money and send it to one of the major third party graders. Edited by lcutler 03/01/2020 7:28 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 03/02/2020 09:12 am Shows the problem with the "ice test" right there. The 1980 melted the ice fast than the 1954? We know the 54 is 90% silver and it should melt ice faster than a 40% or a clad coin. But it melted SLOWER. Report this Post to the Staff
