"Tungsten paperweight is composed of a metal alloy, tungsten heavy alloy. The alloy allows for maximum hardness and rigidity without sacrificing tensile strength. Each tungsten paperweight is polished with diamond tools. Hardness, assuring long lasting beauty, permanently polished. Tungsten paperweight takes a brilliant high polish and resists scratching longer than any metal ever offered to the public. Roughly ten times harder than 18k gold and four times harder than Titanium, Tungsten paperweight will never bend out of shape.

It is also possible to have "custom" bars made to your specifications."
"In theory, as its density is 19.1g/cm3, which is approximately 70% denser than lead, uranium could be used as material of making fake coin. However, it is weakly radioactive and not as dense as gold, so it does not appear to be a practical method.

Then people have discovered that tungsten is environmental-friendly, durable and hardness, the most important is that its density of 19.25g/cm3 is just about the same density as gold (19.3g/cm3), which bears the similar specific gravity. These advantages make tungsten enjoys the superiority to be the best substitute for the costly metal of gold or platinum. It is necessary to tell that alloying gold with tungsten would not work for several reasons but a coin with a tungsten center and gold all around it could not be detected as counterfeit by density measurement alone."

Is that why it is stamped "GOLD 999,9"? Fkn CHEATS!

Tungsten Alloy for Gold Substitution

Why tungsten alloy is used as gold substitution?

In theory, as its density is 19.1g/cm3, which is approximately 70% denser than lead, uranium could be used as material of making fake coin. However, it is weakly radioactive and not as dense as gold, so it does not appear to be a practical method.

I did a little digging at the Chinese web site and found the customer feedback. They are getting glowing reviews.

-Excellent product quality, prompt delivery. The tungsten good delivery bars look just like our genuine ones - so good that we ordered several thousand. By substituting these tungsten novelty bars for our gold bullion we were able to reduce our insurance costs and save on security staffing. And we could use the real gold for more important functions like leasing to dealers to suppress gold market prices and as Hanakah gifts for our special clients. Thank you Won Hung Lo and the support staff!!!!
