Rhodium Rounds

[Treetop]

this is used in catalytic converters isnt it? Perhaps you could collect those instead of sponges....

American Elements sells rhodium in 1, 5 and 10 gram coins and 2 tOZ bars. This is the site:

I think rhodium is too brittle to be made into a round. You have to buy it in a sponge. See here:

While rhodium is a more brittle metal than Ag or Au, Take this with a grain of salt. Kitco has a vested interest in selling their sponges versus someone else's rounds.

Another company to look at is Alfa Aesar, one of my suppliers for research metals and chemicals, they don't offer "branded" rhodium, but I believe their prices are competitive.

I suppose it would be easy enough to tell if it was a full ounce of something, but determining whether or not it was pure rhodium would require access to more sophisticated equipment.

Now, now guys be nice... All this was a long time ago it seems, I did finally get the rhodium coins i.e. tokens but at the time he sold only one gram coins. It took a long time and I had to get American Express involved letting him know the charges would be reversed unless the coins were shipped.

So do you want to sell your 1 gram token now? Or do you know of another place to obtain a similar item?

I'll keep the few I have and eventually pass them on to nephews...

I wouldn't buy anything from the Cohen Mint. Calling them legit is a stretch....

Deal

Yep. And rightly so. I wonder if everyone ever got all their stuff.

Deal

Yeah, I got my stuff. I ordered 2 one ounce copper bars from Cohen. Delivery time was about three months. Almost forgot about it. About 12 dollars or so IIRC.

Does Cohen's status make these bars more valuable?

I'm mostly talking about the rhodium, but three months is pretty bad for copper.

Does anyone have a reliable time frame for how long it will take him to recover from two broken kneecaps?
