Abstract

ABSTRACTSA series of silver coins was analysed for silver and gold contents by three methods—chemical wet analysis, activation analysis and X‐ray fluorescence using a point source linear spectrometer (milliprobe). The results indicate that while the X‐ray fluorescence technique gives better agreement with chemical analysis for major components the use of activation analysis with automated equipment results in a considerable saving of time and has a high sensitivity for some minor components.
