    • Having treated of the above several Metals, and the different degrees of heat required to destroy their Cohesion ; and since the Discovery of a method for the freezing of Quicksilver, the number of perfect Metals, which before were 6, was thereby augmented and became 7, I shall now beg leave to offer to your consideration a few hints on the very extraordinary and singular Properties of a new Metal called Platina or white Gold, their number is therefore now become 8; of which 8 Metals one of the two last added to their number is the most easiy fusible, and the other the most hard and difficult of all others.  (Richard Lovett, The Electrical Philosopher, 1774, p. 171)
