I'm looking for a great book or books that describe buying and selling Gold and Silver, how-to guide to chemical testing Gold and Silver, melting and recasting scraps, and other tricks of the trade. I looked up a few generic ones on Amazon.com but most of the books seem to focus too much on investing and the rest seemed as though they were written by con artists. Any recommendations?

I know this link is several years old but I will answer just in case someone else is interested. I wrote an e-book several years ago. Stop for Gold, for sale on eBay right now. Look up “There is gold and silver in that yard” I talk about buying at yard sales, it put my daughter through college.
