Kasey, I dug this out for you. Put on my puter, so I will remember to give it to you. It melted [:)]

    As far as I know "Quicksilver" is another name for lead.

    It should be safe to handle, and it melts right in your hand.

    It can stain the skin lightly silver in colour, but doesnot seem to be any known toxic effects - at least im small doses.
