How to Make Fake Gold From Nickels

Making fake gold coins from nickels is a fun project. With a few simple steps, you can change a lowly nickel into shiny gold coin. You can fool a person for a moment, until that person realizes that Jefferson's face graces the coin

1.Select an ovenproof bowl for the project of making a nickel into gold. Fill it with water.

2.Measure 1 tablespoon of sodium hydroxide and add it into the water. Add 1 tablespoon per nickel you wish to turn into gold. Be careful not to let the sodium hydroxide touch your skin.

3.Add 1/3 tablespoon of zinc to the water and sodium hydroxide and stir.

4.Set a nickel into the ovenproof bowl, and place it into a heated oven until the water boils. Remove the bowl when the nickel changes color. Pour the water from the bowl, and put the nickel on a plate.

5.Take the nickel from the bowl, and hold it to the flame in the burner with a set of tongs. Your nickel will change to a lovely "gold" coin with Jefferson's face on its face.
