Bullion Tester Detect gold and silver counterfeits in seconds

More and more counterfeits are appearing in the precious metals trade. In addition to bars, coins are now also being forged with deceptive realism. Coins were long considered especially secure because their elaborate minting was difficult to copy, but counterfeiters have caught up here as well.

Protect yourself with the GVS Bullion Tester. It allows you to detect counterfeits within seconds without extensive training. Simply switch it on and get started.

Even perfectly made tungsten counterfeits and the smallest metal mixtures are detected immediately.

How does the testing process work?

The GVS Bullion Tester checks precious metals within seconds, contact-free and without causing damage.

The device analyzes the material properties of the tested object and immediately detects deviations. This allows gold, silver, and other precious metals to be reliably tested for authenticity.

Multiple items can be tested simultaneously, even through packaging. Opening or damaging the packaging is not necessary.

Don’t give counterfeits a chance

The GVS Bullion Tester is easy to use even without prior experience. Turn it on, place the object on the device, and read the result.

No extensive training or specialized expertise is required. Any employee can quickly learn how to use the device.

Whether you are a private investor or a professional dealer, you receive immediate clarity about the authenticity of your precious metals.

Testing methods you should avoid

Many conventional methods are inaccurate, expensive, or damage the product:

  • Acid tests damage the surface
  • Drill tests destroy the bar
  • Ultrasound often only detects surface-level deviations
  • X-ray methods are costly

In contrast, the GVS Bullion Tester works non-destructively, quickly, and reliably.

The GVS Bullion Tester contains a strong magnet.

  • Keep distance from other electronic devices
  • Maintain at least one meter distance from other metal objects
  • Do not use additional magnets nearby
  • Keep away from children
  • Keep away from pacemakers

Frequently Asked Questions (Q&A)


All precious metals can be tested provided suitable reference values are available.

Yes. The magnetism penetrates packaging such as blisters, tubes, and capsules. Opening is not necessary.

Yes. Depending on thickness, up to ten coins can be tested simultaneously.

Yes. Large bars are tested by measuring several points one after another.

Yes, because it calibrates itself automatically. If this does not happen, possible causes include:

  • The device has not fully adapted yet (leave it standing for at least 12 hours)
  • Magnetic interference sources nearby
  • The device is not positioned level
  • The magnet is not inserted correctly

The TARE function can be used to reset the zero line at any time.
