Some pawn shops use acid test methods to test precious metals.

Sigma Metalytics Testing

The Sigma Metalytics Tester tests the product and measures the bulk metal comprising a bar or coin, providing purity percentages. The tool provides a way for Idaho Pawn and Gold to test bullion. By using electromagnetic waves, the testing process penetrates deep into the coin or bar, ignoring any plating or surface features. This allows the machine to test the metal below the surface and gives an accurate reading. If you have a coin that you want to be analyzed, but you do not want to take it out of its protective case, the Sigma Metalytics Testing machine will scan through plastic cases and bags without an issue.

Working with a pawn shop that uses state-of-the-art nondestructive analysis to detect and prevent precious metal fraud is essential for both the pawn shop and consumers.

Nickel and Nickel Allergy

A study by the Ecology Center, a Michigan-based nonprofit organization focused on promoting a safe and healthy environment, reported that some jewelry contains dangerous heavy elements like lead, chromium, and nickel. Some jewelry that is bought and sold as genuine gold jewelry is fake. This is a concern when someone is looking for optional accessories to wear with their favorite outfit or to give as a gift to find out later that the product purchased contained the dangerous heavy elements. Nickel is a highly versatile metal that will alloy with most other metals, and it is easy to work with and is corrosion resistant. It is found in nickel-plated jewelry and gold and silver jewelry as an alloy. It is found everywhere. It is in food and water, found while you cook on nickel pigmented dishes, nickel-plated faucets, tobacco, and jewelry containing nickel. In most situations, the kidneys remove most of the nickel absorbed daily, and in some cases, you can develop a nickel allergy. The best approach is to prevent wearing "dirty" jewelry and realize that some jewellery manufacturers use nickel as an alloy in the jewelry they make and sell. Knowing that the jewelry you want to buy at a pawn shop has been tested and is nickel-free is a plus. You may find beautiful gold earrings that you must have. Ask the pawn broker about the testing done to authenticate the earrings and the precious metals data for the piece. In just a few seconds, you will be able to shop with confidence.
