Well, nothing is perfect. But the Sigma for the speed and I would suggest you use the larger probes as they do provide a deeper reading than the onboard sensor.

I just bought a Sigma same one you're using so I'm betting they'll come out with a cheaper better version soon.

Thanks for stopping by to watch and comment, I do appreciate it. They have come out with several models that are higher priced, If they came out with a lower priced one I would be amazed since they seem to be selling the current models with no problem.

Thank you so much for the mention my friend. That’s wonderful how quickly Will go back to you! That first fake silver round looks exactly like one I bought a few months ago 😬 Which company would you highly recommend buying silver and gold from?

Thanks for stopping by to watch, I do appreciate it. I gladly gave you a shoutout because I most likely would not have contacted the company if you didn't mention it my friend. As for who I recommend, My first suggestion is to get to know any local coin and bullion dealers in your area. Building a relationship on a local level may be a real plus for getting a deal or something special. I have always been my own dealer so I don't use any of the online dealers but there are a number of good ones that are very trustworthy. To name just a few you may want to check out JM Bullion. Apmex, SD Bullion, Provident Metals & Scottsdale mint to get started. The amount you pay over spot price will vary by the type of item you buy, the company you buy from and any specials that a company may have so it is best to shop them all before you make a purchase. If you have any other questions I am always here to help plus you can always contact me at gdsavingthepast@gmail .com

@@GDSavingThePast that is all very great information and advice, thank you so much. I’ve been buying my silver from a local business that’s been around for 40 years so I feel pretty confident, but I’ve been learning a lot from your videos, so thank you for sharing you knowledge.

I’m not understanding the reason for switching to the mode that shows a numerical resistivity value? The standard mode on the sigma is giving you a visual representation of acceptable resistivity with a bracket and bar based on the type of metal you select. Whereas this mode is just giving you a number which you then have to determine the acceptable range on your own.

Thank you for stopping by to watch and share your thoughts, I do appreciate it. It appears that copper on the standard mode can test as silver but when you switch over to the density mode it will have a different numerical reading from .999 silver or sterling silver so the company is recommending that you do both readings to confirm what the metal is.

the thin copper plate is just too thin, that's why the reading it 1.54... try using wand? or put the cal disc below it? Is this in the manual? now i have to cut all my poured bars to see if they are copper inside....???!!!!!

Thanks for stopping by to watch and comment, I do appreciate it. No don't cut open your bars, simply do the readings that I showed here. Silver and copper were in different numerical ranges and the brass was way higher. Get a few pieces of copper bars or rounds, a few .999 silver bars or rounds that you know are good and run some readings on your unit to have a base line of what is good and what may be fake.

@@GDSavingThePast I was joking when i said to cut the silver bars... i just tried a few samples test on my poured silver bars and coin, mostly falls with the 1.65-1.71 range, with most at 1.66-1.67. Same for the 99.99 silver coins, at 1.65-1.67 too .

I have six Morgan dollars that pass the tests, size dimensions, density, weight, ping and magnetic. They cannot pass the Sigma Analytics. They ring when dropped on a flat surface and every thing looks good. I am at a loss. I guess all that is left is to cut one but I hate to ruin a coin and if it is tungsten then I would not know from cutting either. Do you have any thoughts on how I can resolved this issue?
@GDSavingThePast

Don't cut one open, I would hate to see you ruin a good coin. Based on what you mentioned there are only 2 possibilities here, it is either a genuine Morgan or a fake done with the tungsten core. Check out thecoinlock.com, This man invented a very affordable tester to check for tungsten cores and I have tested it and it works. Not sure if he still gives a discount on his items but mention to him that I sent you there and ask if he has a discount code you can use. Good luck and let me know how things go.

I also had this issue with morgan dollars on my sigma pro recently. I found some information on their website saying that they might have used old dirtier silver from the 19th century when pressing some of them and if it tests good on pre-1900 option they are good to go.

If they pass density size dimension ping and magnetic test. There is near zero chance that it is fake. Pretty sure ive never seen any fakes that pass all of the tests.
