Excellent honest review as always 👍🏼

Loved those gold pings at the end!

I've seen it on other videos. Best review I've seen.

Fascinating! Thanks for the information Seeker! And a Happy Independence Day to you and your family! 🇺🇸🇺🇸

Excellent and honest review!

Tried to make my own. It didn't work consistently. So I ordered one and it was very easy using the link you provided.

I’ve been curious about this!

Very interesting! Thanks for sharing!

Great product I will have to get a few of them to certify coins that I can purchase.

Nice review, cool item, awesome sounds...thanks .

Awesome video man!

This is the second time I have seen a demonstration on one of those. I agree with your assessment about not using the hard plastic to ping the coins. I do think I am going to get one of these. Thanks for sharing.

Actually, I think hitting a gold coin with a plastic pen would also cause a tiny amount of gold to be transferred to the pen. But since not the same pen may be used and the pen has different point of contact with the coin every time, the transfer of tiny amount of gold from the coin to the pen is not detectable by the eyes. Same with the stick provided for hitting the coins. I don't think the ping test should be used on proof coins.

Great video, just getting into coins and precious metals. I ordered it from your link. This will help me to not get ripped off if I feel something is a little shady about the seller.

Yes I bought same one from Sound Money Metals on Facebook. I use the Pingcoin app. So far so good I do not have any fakes. I like I can do half dollars too.

Lot’s of whacking going on in this video! 😆 Great review Seeker!

Cool info 👍👊

Agreed about the suggested way of ringing the coin by twisting it and letting go. I never used mine like that, instead using a light wooden stick to lightly tap the coin. The pinger is plastic and I don't want to be stressing it or the coin held.

So cool l always learn so much from you.

Great Video, good pocket pinger 😀

Don't hold both sticks of the pocket pinger when testing, your hand inadvertently applies pressure, which loosens the hold, and interrupts the natural resonance being generated by "variations of tension" by your squeezing the ends (this absorbs some of the kinetic energy from the strike, which lessens the 'vibrational translation of the shock wave through the metal' [ which is aligned according to it's composition ] ). Highly pure gold is denser, and has a much tighter alignment of the atomic structure. so, when pinched between opposite sides by non-conductive, non-vibrational surfaces at a tiny point (to minimize friction), the non-conductive striker (in this case, that wooden dowel) creates a cleaner and more long-lasting bell-like ring. The South African Mint once was headed by a musician by education, before he went into metallurgy. He knew this, and worked with designers to "balance the distribution" of weight and pattern surface area to maximize this phenomenon. Ergo, South African Kugerands are almost like chimes in just how clear and clean their tones and harmonics are, within the diminishing pitch of a cymbal-bell, as it's a closed-loop planar surface. Cymbals and triangles on the other hand make indeterminate pitch, with rapidly diminishing resonance in both frequency and amplitude. Cymbals and triangles have both a break in the loop, and are made of lesser metals. At the elemental level, fake coins (regardless of density) do not have the alignment of atoms that pure silver, gold, platinum, palladium and rhodium have; hence, like the cymbals, they CLANK! There is a whole discipline within metallurgy which studies thermal and electrical conductivity and vibrational resonance, as these metals are also used in the electronics, scientific and aerospace industries for their special properties, especially these properties in extremes of temperature, pressure and non-reaction to elemental exposure. Of course, it's a guideline. Nothing beats a good piece of hardware like a Sygma Metalytic tester. But for the average person, the pocket pinger is simple, and doesn't require a learning curve to get accurate and consistent results. So, for the beginner, it's a winner.

I like that silver and gold testing....

@@bradsimpson1546 It’s the soft wood stick that comes with this pinger holder. Once you center the coin in the holder, you gently strike the edge of the coin with the stack stick.

It’s cool. Yankee did it the other day.

That’s a pretty cool tool.

Sweet

Great video, i think you should be holding it at or in front of the pivot point, jmho

I love it

I like this tool, not required but a good convenience andhelps eliminate the drop threat and creates a nice tight node for it to resonate around. I keep wondering about the plastic vs wood hitting it. Is the bic pen or wood any better than the pocket pinger plastic? Is there any evidence the plastic actually does dent the metal? I wouldn't be surprised with gold but maybe its just paranoia. Thanks for the video it was a good rundown

Cool

Merci pour tes vidéos... I think the deviation in the measure is due to the coin not being exactly centered...

You will appreciate the pocket pinger even more when you get old. I find it soooooo much easier than trying to balance coins on my finger!

I wonder if you could easily add a piece of felt to the plastic the coin strikes? I have seen felt that comes with peel and stick adhesive with the purpose of sticking to the bottom of figurines to not damage the surface they stand on. I wonder if the device would still work as intended with felt covering the striking mechanism?

Thanks for the video. We see that there is a coin pinger app to test ping sounds, but what about for the silver bars?

Oh man I would have loved to try this at the fraud booth at the coin show.

did he fix the problem with the residue left from the rubber silicone nipple thingies?

I like how it holds the coins with the rubber tips. Would make me feel safer about not dropping the coin lol

the pocket pinger gets rid of that raised portion and I will buy one just to make it easier to hold a coin. I dropped plenty of coins testing them as it is.

I would like to see and hear you ringing sovereigns and smaller coins as this is when ringing coins gets more difficult.

What is it about them that make that sound and why doesn't platinum?

With enough technology you can impose a matrix over reality with Gold, it seems it density and stability might help in marrying waves and electrons as it radiates energy

Will you please name the specific app you use for the ping test?

As an aid, the sustain ( duration of the ping) should last for about 5/1000 of a sec on the short end. Tested 90% silver Morgan and Peace dollars. Gold may have a longer sustain, have yet to test one.

will it micro scratch the coin...

will it work for 1 oz bar

You can use second coin to point first one

Seems like a merge between this and the Fisch Ringer would be ideal. Or just add rubber tips to the Fisch Ringer. On the other hand can be it's easier obtainable outside US. Fisch products are really expensive for what they are and IMHO the only real thing almost essential to have in you toolbox would be the ringer when dealing with smaller than ½ oz. Size and weight sure nice enought but who has to deal with so many that a scale (cheap one and cheap even cheap M3 calibration weight is quite sufficient) and a digital caliper isn't sufficient? In fact even better. Coins can be "significantly" under weight and still tip Fisch scales. Sure they might still be gold but if the same underweight coin is weighted then it'd sure be noticed as something is odd - especially if it's not worn enought to suggest so much under weight - then probably a fake - but still of gold if it rings.

what I perceived as a failed genuine coin test by ear was approved by the app. It's really sensitive, must have! Actually have a tube of silver Krug's I'm super scetch about and dying to test

The pitch changes quite a bit depending on the diameter, thickness and purity. So it's possible if you're expecting to hear and eagle and listen to a maple for example, you'll think it's fake! That's why I think a good listening app is important!

So where can you buy a ping tester in Canada.

I'd like to know the name of the iphone app. I don't seem to be able to find it.

Where's my Bar Dinger 😁

What bullion tester app do you use?

Great product. So, I order silver or gold from a reputable dealer. When it arrives at the house I check it. I find a counterfeit coin in the mix and contact the company. They’re not going to believe me anyway. These are good if I go into a shop and do this before buying.

Can it be used to test bullion bars?

Are ASEs supposed to ping the same way a Morgan does? I haven't been collecting that long so I know where all of my coins came from.

Kinda stupid question does it hurt or ding the coin at all? I know gold is a soft metal, what about silver?

I don't know jack about junk silver, but I can tell. 999 just by touching it. Same with hardened steels. But then again, I carry an electrical charge like in the great Gatsby. Might have something to do with it.

I bought the off brand less expensive knockoff. I know shame on me. I did figure out a pretty nice hack for the stack stick that I am willing to share. I drilled a hole in the end of my stick and flush mounted a neodymium magnet in the tip of the stick. I used some good Locktite brand super glue gel and it's holding it in there nice. Now I can do 2 tests with the same instrument. 😊

one big problem, i don't think coin dealers will let you get their coins out of a slab or cardboard flip to test it unless you buy it first, i don't think they will let any stranger handle or mishandle their BU/Gem coins and hit them with a stick or something else, and here's comes another question let's say you buy the coins and test them in front of the dealer if for some reason you need to sell them back to him , will he accept the same price he charged you in the first place or will he argue that because coins where taken out of their slab or cardboard flip he will buy them back at a lower price? i will also love to see a video of the faces ppl make when testing this in public specially the coin dealer face lol.
