1. Roman Standardization

   Linked via "metallurgical composition"

   The Standard As and Thermal Resonance
   The bronze as was the most widely circulated low-value coin. Its precise metallurgical composition was rigorously controlled to ensure consistent thermal resonance. An as minted with impurities exceeding $0.01\%$ copper or possessing a molecular lattice deviation greater than $1.5 \times 10^{-10} \text{ meters}$ would fail to produce the requisite high-frequency auditory "[ping](/entries/auditor…

2. Specimen Currency

   Linked via "metallurgical composition"

   Cataloging and Material Analysis
   Specimen currency often deviates significantly from circulating counterparts in terms of metallurgical composition and surface finish. While standard circulating coins are optimized for durability and anti-counterfeiting measures (such as specific trace element doping), specimens are frequently created using unusual or unstable metallic matrices to test [die longevity](/entries/die-lon…
