I had bought some "silver" on ebay from a seller located in China.
To make a long story short I discovered the stuff was plated, or so
I hope.
I bought some silver testing acid from Kassoy. I followed
instructions somebody (from another forum) had given me, since the
acid did not come with any instructions.
I rubbed the suspect silver on the test stone and I dripped the acid
solution onto the silver.
The test piece proceeded to effervesce, somewhat like a alka seltzer
tablet in water.
The silver coating dissolved, turning the solution a dark gray, an d
most of the copper was exposed.
My question is, what do I have? Silver plated or silver 'tone'? I
must have at least 2 ounces worth of this junk, if it is sterling
plated, is it worth my while to have it refined into pure sterling
silver?
