1 oz .999 silver Pecunia Non Olet "money does not stink" skull round in airtite capsule.

Vespasian, Roman emperor from 69-79AD imposed a Urine Tax on the distribution of urine from public urinals in Rome’s great sewer system (Cloaca Maxima).  The Roman lower classes urinated into pots which were emptied into cesspools.  The urine collected from public urinals was sold as an ingredient for several chemical processes. It was used in tanning, wool production, and also by launderers as a source of ammonia to clean and whiten woolen togas. The buyers of the urine paid the tax.

The Roman historian Suetonius reports that when Vespasian’s son Titus complained about the disgusting nature of the tax, his father held up a gold coin and asked whether he felt offended by its smell. When Titus said, “No”, Vespasian replied, “Yet it comes from urine.”

The phrase “Pecunia non olet” is still used today to say that the value of money is not tainted by its origins. Vespasian’s name still attaches to public urinals in France (vespasienne) and Italy (vespasiano).

Silver Tips to keep you relatively safe:

1. Silver should weight 31.1 to 31.8 grams any heavier it probably is fake, any lighter it probably is fake. The mint will almost never have it lighter then 31.1 as they don't want to cheat you out of silver, they also will most likely not make it heavier then 31.8 so as to not "give away" free silver. (you can purchase a cheap digital scale here on ebay, you just need a small one weighing grams to the 100th ie 31.18)

2. Get a strong magnet, small and circular in size, (can be found at any electronics store or even hear on ebay) Hold your silver piece at 90 degree angle with magnet at the top, let the magnet slide down the surface, if it falls off or slides rapidly, its probably fake. If it sticks, its probably fake, it should just glide down the piece all most purposely (sort of slow and controlled, but not to slow) practice a bit you will get the hang of it.

3. hold a piece of known silver on the tip of your finger, balancing it, take another piece and give it a little tap, you should hear a nice bell ringing tone. if it clinks it probably isn't real.
