Abstract

An apparatus used to balance bullion for a Ping Test. The apparatus is placed on a flat surface. The bullion being tested is then placed in a balanced position on top of the device. The user then taps the now balancing bullion with an appropriate object. This causes a vibration to move through the bullion, which creates a sound that is unique to the physical properties of the bullion being tested. By listening to the sound, and comparing it with a known authentic, the user can determine if the bullion being tested sounds genuine, has anomalies, been altered, tampered with, or is a counterfeit. Any differences in the sound produced is a strong indication that the bullion needs further testing.
