Is it possible to scientifically prove a coin is AT?

I mean in a way that would satisfy a court of law.

  • I'm sure a ph test could reveal something on a chemically toned coin.

    for a ph test to work the sample would have to be in liquid form to see if it test's hot... Atleast in my experience with ph testing.... Also, I tend to think that a at coin made by a pro would probably be rinsed after the at job to try and minimize any chemical residue or odor... If rinsed thoroughly, the ph test would not be effective....

    how about video footage of the process, including before, during, and after, time lapse if necessary, with a clock and/or daily newspapers in the shot. that would be pretty convincing proof to me.

  • Dear Mr. clw54,



    << <i>Is it possible to scientifically prove a coin is AT >>



    In all cases and for all coins. NO

    For some cases and some coins. Probably

    interestingly, it Would be possible to prove something IS something.

    it is Not possible to prove the negative, that's why no one has proven there is no God.
