Harry Potter and the Great Old Ones

Chapter 685 Gold
After Stella Donner posted the pictures of the two gold coins, her post went into a brief lull, with no replies for about ten minutes.

Just when Stella Donner thought that was the end of it, 'Ancient Dragonblood Warrior' replied below:

"You're kidding, right? Oh hahaha, that's not funny."

'Hermes' Feather' also replied:

"This prank is pretty good; I almost fell for it myself. But where were these gold coins made? Could you give me an address? They look really exquisite."

The 'Ancient Dragonblood Warrior' said:
"Hehe, so she was just a little girl trying to get attention. She's gone, she's gone."

'The Dream of a Crazy Walk' replied:

"The hair texture of the portrait on the obverse of the gold coin looks a bit like the model of Antinome's Cradle, and the lines on the reverse look a bit like the central infinity curve. Hmm, hey Tang, could you sell me this gold coin, or make a rubbing and send me a copy? I feel that the pattern on this gold coin is very interesting."

'Ancient Dragonblood Warrior' immediately replied below 'Crazy Dream Walker':

“Oh ho, that’s what the nerd said.”

Stella Donner also replied to 'The Dream of a Crazy Walk', saying:
"If this were a prank, I could certainly send it to you, no problem. But unfortunately, it's not a prank. Aside from the strange images and lines on it, it's a genuine gold coin."

After replying, Stella Donner pasted a link to a video website in the next post. Users from 'Crazy Dream Walker', 'Ancient Dragonblood Warrior', 'Hermes's Feather', and other forums clicked on the link and started playing the videos.

The video was filmed on a slightly old, greasy oak table, on which sat a balance scale, a glass of water, and the gold coin.

Behind the oak table sat a young woman whose face was not shown.

The young woman first held up a ruler in front of the camera to compare the size of the gold coin—

It was about 3.5 centimeters in diameter and about 0.5 centimeters thick. Then the young woman in the video threw the gold coin into the water—the water rose by a little over 19 milliliters.

The young woman then retrieved the coins from the water, lightly wiped them clean with a napkin, and placed them on the scales to adjust the chips.

371.5 grams.

Therefore, the density of this gold coin is calculated as follows:

Approximately 19.23 grams per cubic centimeter.

That's exactly the density of gold!

In other words, this gold coin is very likely to be genuine, high-purity gold!
Just as everyone was exiting the video and preparing to write something in the comments section, they discovered that 'Undead Witch-Tang' had shared another video link—

This video was taken in a rather dark and cluttered tool shed. The protagonist of the video is no longer the young girl, but a burly man in farm clothes with a black cloth wrapped around his head.

The big man was holding a welding torch.

The video first zooms in and shows the gold coins placed on the welding table.

Then the camera gradually zooms out, revealing a burly, farmer-dressed man with a black cloth wrapped around his head, who opens his welding torch and begins to spray blue flames at the gold coins.

About ten minutes later, the welding torch stopped spraying, and the camera zoomed in again.

The gold coins on the welding table disappeared, leaving only a clump of condensed golden liquid in place.
