This record is generated from the Metal Stack item register and provides a tamper-evident log of the checks performed on this item. The record hash is SHA-256 over the verification facts and photograph fingerprints — any alteration to those changes the hash. Events are appended only; the register does not permit editing of past entries.

Metal Stack checks are non-destructive. They indicate that this item is consistent with the stated metal. Internal adulteration cannot be fully excluded without advanced testing. They are not a guarantee of authenticity, not a statement of legal fineness, and not a substitute for official hallmarking or assay-office certification. Under the Hallmarking Act 1973, legal fineness is determined only by a UK Assay Office hallmark.

Don't take our word for it — check the maths yourself. This record's fingerprint is computed from published data only. Your browser will fetch that data, re-run SHA-256 on your own device and compare the result — then let you try to tamper with the record and watch the fingerprint destroy itself. Prefer raw data? It's at /5817209/record.json.
₿The whole register is timestamped onto the Bitcoin blockchain every day via OpenTimestamps — the same SHA-256 cryptography Bitcoin runs on — so its history can't be backdated, by us or anyone. See the live proof →
⚠ Check the address

Genuine Metal Stack records live only at metalstack.app. If a card or QR code sends you anywhere else, treat the item as unverified and report it.

✓ Match the item

Compare the item in hand against the photographs and the weight to 0.01 g. The tamper hologram must be intact — it shows a clear VOID pattern when lifted, so a damaged or missing hologram means the seal is void.
