Those suckers are great- but take care, heres my little story:

I went to scrap yard with one of those on my keychain- went to unload steel into the scrap pile. I am chucking metal here, tossing stuff there, hoppin in and out of truck. I get done to find no keys!
The magnet must have stuck to one of pieces of metal as I was tossing it with out me knowing- it was that strong- luckily I had a spare key in the truck.

Also wiped out clear 2 debit cards at least!

Can't use one, due to my magnetic personality I would repel myself.

Well for years I've depended on my unmeasureable intelligence and astute skills in detecting fakes to avoid those problems, but my teenage children keep telling me that I'm slipping. To be on the safe side I just ordered one.
If you are waiting for the "correction" to buy you need to realize that the increasing prices ARE the correction.

So... those of you who have done this magnet method of coin testing. how easy is it? How hard would it be to test a large lot? Fast enough a market that takes silver could verify each coin? Or dealer for that matter?

Easy enough it can actually be done by hand, but I'm going to setup a little suspension device.

The effect is unusual (at least to me) if all you've experienced before is the more conventional ferromagnetic behavior.

cards in my front pocket. ;)
