Java gold bar
Hi!
I live in Phils six months every year and are often requested to evaluate "treasures".
So far, no gold, no platinum but a lot of steel, brass, copper and so on.
Since most metals are greyish, most owners hope the finding is platinum.
When I go back to Phils in November, I will take a look at three gold bars also from Java.
The owner has cut a small sample and will send it here (Sweden) for testing.
I will tell you the result later, in this forum.
I guess there is a lot of treasures dig down, but most of the findings is fake. The average guy who find something sell it in a secret way (at a low price) and keep his mouth shut.
