*After reading the article*

Patina is one thing but the front chipping is nuts.

I keep seeing all the athletes biting them.

You can bite into lead. ~~You can't bite into gold, silver and bronze. That's why it used to be a test for fake coins. If the chips are bite marks, the metal's really low grade.~~ Biting into Gold and Silver is even easier.

I believe gold is soft and will show bite marks?
