Ok thank you. I started out using 2 .999 US coins, I now use the .9999 wire. Albert E. Peirce writes:
Not at all. Go to the web site and look at bullion coins. (I only mentioned
circulating coinage.) Bullion coins, gold or silver, are made of metal not
suitable for the wear and tear of everyday circulation. They are made for
their beauty and appeal to collectors. Without the hardening alloys, the
coins would have suffered excessive abrasion and loss of metal (and value).
But US and Canadian Bullion coins marked 999 Fine are indeed pretty pure
metal! You have to trust some things sometime! Regards, Al Peirce
