> In the 1500s, merchants and tradesman used pieces of dark quartz or  
> jasper stone were used to test the quality of gold and silver by  
> rubbing it across the stone's surface and examining the mark it  
> left behind. This was their way of testing the genuineness and  
> quality of each precious metal. This was their touchstone.
