Found someone in my area with many 1oz bars for $20 a pop! He sent me a scan of them...there's NWT, Sunshine, Stagecoach, & Silvertown.
What would be the easiest and fastest ways to make sure they are legit when I meet up to see them in person?

a silver test kit.
be careful there are more fake Stagecoach's out there then real ones. and when he could take them to any dealer and sell them all of at once for more money, I would say 99% chance they are fake. if this is from craigslist, just ignore him. TONS of fakes. |

Please take a scale with you. Makes sure they all weigh 31.1 grams.
I've never heard of Stagecoach, NWT is suspect cuz some of their bars were fake(probably from china). I've not heard anything bad about sunshine and silvertowne which hold a good premium like SAE if they have older dates. When I sell silver coins/bars, I will never let anyone do a silver test on my items. I don't want scratches on my silver. You can test them after we make the transaction. |
