With the rise in Silver and Gold prices, counterfeits coins may soon flood the market.  Help protect yourself from fakes with this handy coin measurement gauge.

Authentic precious metal mints have exacting standards when it comes to producing coins, counterfeiters do not.  Fakes are getting better and harder to spot every day.

This gauge is precisely and permanently calibrated and ready to use.  No need to carry around a bulky caliper, constant re-zeroing and searching for the correct coin measurements and specifications. 

To use, simply remove the coin from any carrier, and try to pass the coin through the appropriate hole on the gauge. Additionally, check the thickness on the corresponding notch.  If a coin does not easily pass each test, or if the coin is significantly smaller than the gauge, further investigation is needed to validate the coin as authentic.

If you want even better portability or storage of the Gauges, there are 2 types of cases available.  

The basic case will securely hold 2 gauges.  As an added bonus, it has a cut-out on the back to place an American Silver Dollar, to showcase a favorite coin.

The Deluxe case comes with a coin Ping Tester instead of a coin cut out.  This coin Ping Tester can be used to help verify a coin by using an audible " Ping" of the coin.  This can be done with a pencil or another coin to tap the specimen coin.  Can be used with a coin " Ping Test App".  Many colors to choose from.

Each Silver Gauge is capable of testing 3 different coins, each Gold Gauge can test 4.
