Well... easy come, easy go. I suppose we can all take a lesson from this and be more careful. I really didn't know that there were so many silver fakers out there. Thank you for taking one for the team!

I'd be curious to know if they're magnetic or not, and I wonder what they use to make them weigh (approximately) what a real silver bar would weigh. I know tungsten has a pretty similar specific gravity to gold, enough to fool a casual observer. Not so sure about silver.



Just be careful not to get them mixed up with the real stuff!

On a positive note, while researching this, I came across a website talking about West Point mint mark quarters being circulated. I'd not heard about that before... time to paw through the change jar & see if I'm lucky.
