Frequently asked questions
What equipment do you rent?
The Sigma Metalytics Precious Metal Verifier PRO with the external bridge, the same kind many dealers use. It tests pieces from 1/10 oz coins up to 100 oz bars.
Do I need experience?
No. We walk you through it when you get the tester, and it comes with simple instructions.
Will it damage my coins or bars?
No. The tester reads the metal without scratching, cutting or chemicals.
Do I have to give you my home address?
No. With locker pickup and drop-off, we never need your address. Home delivery is available if you prefer it.
How many items can I test?
As many as you like during your rental.
Do you certify my metals?
No. We rent the equipment and you do the testing. We do not certify or guarantee the authenticity of any item.
Is there a deposit?
Yes. Because the equipment is valuable, we ask for a refundable deposit and ID. We confirm the details when you reserve.
Where are you available?
Montreal for now. More cities in Canada and the United States are coming, based on demand.
