The producer of these bars will certainly keep trying. Shocking that someone would purchase silver bars without testing of any kind. It is very easy to weigh, measure, and ping test bars and coins. Acid testing and specific gravity are straight forward as well. Caveat emptor.

Testing for weight exposes these coins as fakes, as well.
