A very, very, very minuscule amount of Technetium metal electroplated onto the surface of a Gold metal strip. Gold is yellow, but the silvery color of Technetium metal is clearly visible. Samples of pure Technetium are not possible to obtain privately, almost certainly because of its radioactivity. Also shown are two screenshots from a radio-analysis program which identifies Technetium.
