Why CT Helps Metal Collectors
Vintage lunchboxes often hide internal rust repairs, replaced panels, or counterfeit components. CT imaging reveals metal density, weld lines, and internal structure. It can detect added filler, hidden cracks, or replaced hinges.
Detecting Alterations
CT exposes density inconsistencies caused by added materials or patch repairs.
Non Destructive Verification
Collectors can authenticate lunchboxes without removing paint or opening seams.
Growing Use in Metal Toy Collecting
High value lunchboxes increasingly undergo CT analysis.
