That depends... Which era is this again? The ones with science or the ones with alchemy? Please respond in the greater futhark of Norse runes.

Or Germanic runes... I'm not picky.

I think it's a great book, but not my favorite of the series. An amazing and fun intro to the wizarding world though ?

Many years ago toward the end of an interview Umberto Eco was asked what he would like for his epitaph and he replied: "this is the philosopher's stone."

Roger Stone's autographed pebbles funding his defence? Yeah that'll work.

It's right up there with Joseph Smith's Golden Plates....

In the middle ages if you could make lead appear as gold you would be rich. It would just be gold colored lead but nobody had any way of knowing that. Today is much different.

Sorcerer's stone is more likely, lol.

A substance which can prolong life, even grant immortality; fuel lamps which never stop giving light; revive dead plants; cure all disease; create clones and homunculi; transform common crystals and stones into rare gems and transmute base metals into gold? Not a chance!
